Deciding to lease a car is big decision. It is not an option for some as they prefer to own their vehicle. However for many it is a great option. They get to have a great new car, with sometimes lower payments then purchasing a vehicle, and they also get to get a new car every few years! There are many advantages and disadvantages with deciding to choose the lease option on a vehicle. However, there is a basic rule to leasing: Be responsible with your lease!

Leasing a vehicle is where you choose a vehicle and basically pay to borrow that vehicle for a certain amount of time. A lease agreement will be drawn up between you and the person(s) leasing you the vehicle. There are usually constraints and requirements put on the person “borrowing” the vehicle. Usually there is a restriction of miles to be used and if more are used you will be charged. The vehicle also should be returned in a acceptable condition, acceptable condition would be outlined in the lease agreement. Each lease agreement will be a little different. Make sure that you fully understand you lease agreement. This is the first step to being responsible with your lease.

You will need to take good care of your lease. Your lease agreement will most likely state that if there is excessive wear and tear to the vehicle inside or out you will be charged per damage. The lease will also dictate what they feel is excessive wear and tear. However, sometimes you cannot clearly determine what is or isn’t, or you may simply not have the time for figuring it out. Try to be responsible with your lease and prevent damage from happening. That way you will save yourself a lot of money upon returning your lease.

If damage does occur to the vehicle or if you unsure what is considered excessive wear and tear you can take your vehicle to an auto body repair shop for a lease return inspection. They will examine and evaluate your vehicle to determine the degree of damages. Once they determine what is considered excessive wear and tear, they can let you know. You can then choose to have them complete the repairs for you. Usually this is a great choice since independent repair shops usually charge less than the owner of your lease or dealerships would. Even though you pay a little bit, it will be less than what the owner could charge you. You do not have to get the work completed at the shop where you got the lease return inspection. However it is still good to know what to expect when returning your lease. And you can also consider it a second opinion away from the owner.

The bottom line is to take good care of your lease to avoid paying more money in the end. However if something does need to be repaired be responsible and get it repaired. There are many auto body shops who are qualified to work on leased vehicles!

If your car is in need of auto reconditioning start looking for a qualified professional to handle your concerns.
