Feel free to keep reading below to find out all of the latest information on the steps for a lease-end with your Subaru Forester.
1. Decide between 4 lease-end options with your Subaru Forester
The first step in this process with your Forester is to figure out what comes next for you. You have four different lease-end options to consider, and we're here to make sure you choose the one that fits your current needs the best. These options include leasing a new Subaru model, returning your Forester, extending the lease on your Forester, and deciding to purchase your current ride. No matter what you choose in the end, we want to make sure you're satisfied with your decision and have no regrets. We'll be here to help you with whatever comes next, and we just want you to know that you can always rely on us for your needs.
2. What do I do with the Subaru Wear and Use guide?
If you intend on turning in your current Forester to either lease a new one or just start fresh, then you need to make sure you pay attention to the wear and use guide from Subaru. This guide will help you see if there is anything wrong with your Forester that could potentially end up in you having to pay extra at the end. We especially recommend checking your tire treads to make sure they're at least 1/8th inch at the lowest point. Make sure to view the guide to see what else you should be focused on, and feel free to reach out to us via phone if you have questions about the guide and the wear on your Forester.
3. How important is a pre-inspection for my Forester?
Pre-inspections are very important for anyone who will be turning in their leased Forester, and not as important if you intend on extending your lease or buying your ride. These pre-inspections should be done about 45 days before your final turn-in date, and you'll be able to review the condition report online around twenty-four hours after the appointment. There is still going to be an inspection after you turn in your Forester, but this is an opportunity to potentially have small repairs done before the turn-in. Be sure to always keep track of repairs so we are aware of them, and ensure they are done by someone like the licensed professionals at our service center.
4. Make your final appointment!
If you're looking to extend your lease or buy your Subaru Forester, this will be an appointment where you fill out paperwork on a new contract, or even potentially fill out a new financing plan. For everyone else, this final appointment is when you will hand over all of the paperwork and keys of your Subaru Forester and move on to whatever is next in your life. Should you be leasing another vehicle after, we'll make sure that the process is easy for you so you can drive home in your new ride without having to wait around. Remember to take out any personal items if this is the last time you'll be driving your Forester.
5. Complete your return
You aren't done just yet! We ask that you complete the Digital Lease Turn-in form within a day of turning in your Forester. This helps to determine the last bill you'll have to pay. We'll also be performing an inspection on your vehicle and comparing that to any added wear and tear. Once the final bill is paid, you're officially done. Have more questions? Then just note that we'll always be here to make sure that you never feel confused about this process.
