PREPARING FOR THE END OF YOUR LEASE
You will need to arrange an end-of-lease vehicle inspection, which should be completed in the last two or three months of your lease agreement. The inspection is free and the inspector will travel to a location convenient to you.
1. Schedule an Inspection
Schedule your free end-of-lease vehicle inspection by visiting SGS or call the SGS National Customer Service Center at 1-800-340-4080 (Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 9 p.m., ET.) Please have your Acura Financial Services® (AFS) account number and VIN available.
2. Review your results
If you are present during the inspection, the inspector will give you a copy of the report following the inspection. Shortly thereafter, you will also receive a Preliminary End-of-Lease Statement that outlines the estimated costs of any excessive wear-and-use or damage, excess mileage, etc. No charges will be made to your account until after the vehicle has been turned in.
3. Make necessary repairs
If repairs are needed, we encourage you to contact our Service Department to ensure that the vehicle is properly repaired with Genuine Acura Parts (as required by your lease agreement). Please be sure to save all repair receipts, as they will be required at vehicle return.
4. Return your Acura
Contact us to schedule your lease return. On the day of the appointment, make sure you bring all keys to the vehicle, Owner’s Manual and maintenance records, Vehicle Return Receipt, Vehicle Inspection Report and receipts for completed repairs (if performed).
5. After you turn in your Acura
If all payments have been made, you will no longer receive a regular monthly bulling statement. If any end-of-term liabilities apply, these items will be billed at a later time.
