the day, they’d nickel and dime someone to death, losing a customer overtrivia. Now, most seem aware the cost of getting a new client to the brand is (^)
much more than keeping one they already have. So they’ve simplifiedprocedures and are a bit more lenient on wear and tear. As an example, (^)
most now allow some scratches and/or door dings on each body panel.
TIP: Don’t wait till the lease is up to have your car inspected.
Most all lease companies will send an inspector out to look at the car before it is turned back in. They will give you a report of what is normal (^)
wear and tear, and what they intend to charge for. You can then get thingsrepaired, or at least compare what they will charge for the work to what it
will cost you to get it done.
I recommend getting bigger body damage issues handled first and at leastan exterior detail (which costs only $50-$100); many little things you might
be charged for can taken care of this way, before the inspector sees thecar.
Remember: if you tend to be hard on a car or don’t want to mess withgetting work done at the lease’s end, consider getting wear and tear (and (^)
even tire wear) insurance when you lease it. It will usually save you moneyin the long run, and will most definitely save time and hassle. The price
range varies with the coverage and type of car; the profit to the dealer forselling is usually in the $75-$200 range. Feel free to negotiate on it; dealer (^)
cost varies but usually runs between $500-$750 from the contract provider.
