Toyota Lease Return Options

Our Finance Department can help answer any questions you may have regarding purchasing your Toyota lease, please call (614) 412-1805.

If you’re looking to simply return your leased vehicle, we can help with that as well. Simply drop off your vehicle at our Toyota Showroom and ask to speak with a Finance Manager – Germain Toyota of Columbus at 5711 Scarborough Blvd.

A: Of course you can. At Germain Toyota, we gladly take the vehicle in and make sure you complete the necessary DMV documents to transfer the lease back to Toyota. Contact us and we will take care of arranging the inspection for you.

A: For a standard Toyota lease return you can expect a simple visual inspection of your Toyota Car, Truck or SUV, documentation of the current mileage on the vehicle, and you will be asked to sign a receipt acknowledging that the vehicle was returned.

A: At the beginning of your lease your mileage allowance was predetermined. The amount can vary, but average Toyota mileage charges can be $0.15 to $0.25 per mile over your allowance.

A: Wear and tear is determined to be excessive if there is damage to the car beyond a reasonable expectation for the length of time you had the vehicle. Toyota will make this determination and bill you for the excess wear and tear after the vehicle has been picked up from the dealership.

A: Disposition fees are predetermined at the inception of your Toyota Motor Credit lease. You can find this information on your original lease contract.

A: If you were required to place a security deposit at the time of your lease, this money will be reimbursed after the vehicle is inspected. You will receive the full amount of your deposit if there aren’t any mileage and/or wear and tear penalties. If you’re not sure whether you placed a deposit, please refer to your original lease contract.

A: Bringing the following items with you will help expedite your return process: lease agreement, inspection reports, keys, car manual and your maintenance records. Please note your lender may charge for missing items such as spare keys or other equipment that came with the vehicle.
