Lease Returns Made Ease at Buick GMC of Mahwah
It can be challenging to know your options and feel confident when approaching the end of your vehicle's lease. However, it doesn't have to be when you choose us. We provide the information and streamlined lease-return process necessary to help you save time and discover the best option. We accept all major makes and models and can help you at any stage of returning your leased vehicle.
Become Familiar with Your Lease Agreement
One of the first steps to returning your leased vehicle and finding the right option for you is to learn the ins and outs of your lease agreement. We recommend becoming familiar with your lease agreement about four months before the return date. Make a note of the residual or lease-end value, which is one of the most crucial components of determining whether to buy, sell, or return your car.


Determine Your Driving Needs
While your vehicle may serve you well at the moment, it's essential to consider what your driving needs will be in the future to determine the best lease-end option. About three months before your lease return is the right time to consider your options and reflect on your lifestyle and future plans. Asking yourself what kind of vehicle you want to drive for the next three to four years can narrow down your options.
If you're planning on growing your family, maybe you would prefer a large SUV. A more efficient car could be an excellent choice if you started a new job that's further away. By imagining what you will need, it can help you decide whether to buy your leased car or transition to a better fit. You will discover a vast selection of high-quality new and used models at our dealership to help you effortlessly transition to the right match.
Schedule an Inspection with Us
When it's two months before the end of your lease, it's the right time to schedule an inspection. We have experience inspecting all types of cars, trucks, and SUVs and provide needed information for returning your car. Most inspections take about 45 minutes for minimal interruption to your day. Be sure to bring all the items that came with your vehicle and clean your vehicle for the highest value in your condition report.
With a condition report and an estimate of costs from the inspector, you will have a clearer idea of the right next steps.
Final Steps
When it's just a month before your lease ends, it's the right time to schedule a time to bring your vehicle to our location. Whether you leased the vehicle with us or not, you can still return it to us. Have your current mileage, end-of-term-payment, and information from the inspection when you're about to return your leased car.
Your End-of-Term Options
You will have three end-of-term options so that you can discover the best match for your driving needs and lifestyle. These options include:
- Purchase Your Leased Vehicle: If you believe your leased vehicle will serve you well in the future, you will have the first opportunity to buy it. Our finance experts can determine the value of the car and calculate what you've already paid to find a payoff quote.
- Trade-in Your Leased Car: Our finance team can pay off the remainder of your lease to buy your vehicle and use the vehicle's wholesale value as a trade-in credit, subtracting the termination charges from that amount or applying the difference to your next vehicle.
- Return Your Vehicle: Simply bring in your vehicle with all the information you received during the inspection and sign the final paperwork to move on.
