Can you return a leased car early? Many lease companies allow you to return a leased car early, but you’ll need to review your lease agreement to make sure. You also may be subject to fees. Find out more about returning a leased car early with this guide from leasing and finance experts at Fred Martin Nissan, and then reach out to our finance center for more details.

Often the answer is, ‘yes.’ However, you may have to pay fees in order to return your vehicle before the end of the contract. These can include the amount owned, penalty fees, and more.

If you decide to return your leased vehicle, you need to make sure that you bring everything required when returning it to the dealer. This includes:

• Vehicle inspection report
• Repair receipts
• Keys/spare keys
• Owner’s manual
• Maintenance records

If you’re missing things like maintenance records, let us know. We may be able to access that information for you.
