Do I Need a Lease Return Inspection?

Yes, an inspection is almost always required for those returning their leased Explorer. This gives the dealership to assess any damage, and make sure that the car is still in good condition when you give it back. You may have also heard of a pre-return inspection, which is a way to catch any problems before you bring the car back to the dealership. A pre-return inspection is not required, but can be a great way to give yourself a heads-up about any potential problems, and control how much time you have to address them before the end of the lease. 

Can I Prepare My Explorer for a Lease-Return Inspection?

Yes, there are several things you can do to prepare for your inspection! A good first step is to give your Explorer a thorough cleaning inside and out so you can easily spot any dents, scratches, stains, or other damage that may need attention. Make sure your tires are in good condition, check that all lights and features are working properly, and remove any personal items from the cabin and cargo area. You'll also want to gather everything that originally came with the vehicle, including extra keys, floor mats, and the owner's manuals. If you notice any damage that goes beyond normal wear and tear, taking care of those repairs before the inspection can help you avoid additional charges and make the lease-return process much easier.
