Can You Turn In Your BMW Lease at Any BMW Dealership?

If you have a BMW lease, you’ll have many questions as it draws to a close. One of the most important: can you return it at any BMW dealership, or do you have to bring it to the original dealer? A lot can change over the course of a lease, and if a change of residence is one of those changes, BMW of Sherman Oaks outlines what you need to know about the lease-end process.

Will Any BMW Dealership Accept a Leased Vehicle?

The only dealership required to accept your lease is the one that initiated that lease. However, most authorized BMW dealerships will gladly accept a car at the lease's end. It’s always a good idea to call ahead when you receive your lease-end reminder; you can confirm the return, and the dealership can also guide you through the rest of the process.

What’s the BMW Lease Return Process?

You’ll receive notice from BMW Financial Services about three months before the lease ends, giving you time to decide what will replace your leased car. It also gives you time to take care of a few essentials:

• Get a preliminary inspection at our BMW service center so you can perform necessary repairs and prevent wear-and-tear charges.
• Decide whether you’ll extend the lease, buy it out, or choose another new BMW model to lease or finance.
• Schedule your lease return appointment.
