Quick Answer: A Ford Credit lease-end inspection reviews your vehicle's exterior, interior, tires, mileage, and equipment before turn-in. It's performed by Alliance Inspection Management (AiM) and can typically take place at your home, your office, or Gary Yeomans Ford Villages.
A Ford Credit lease-end inspection checks over the condition of your Ford before it goes back. Ford Credit sets this up through Alliance Inspection Management (AiM), an independent third-party inspection company, and appointments can generally happen at your home, your office, or a local Ford dealership.
Start with the Wear and Use Evaluator Card self-assessment, then schedule your complimentary inspection within about 60 days of your lease-end date. The sooner you get it scheduled, the more time you'll have to review the results and take care of any repairs before your appointment.
Some wear is normal on a leased vehicle, and Ford Credit's Wear and Use Guide lays out what's considered normal versus excessive. As a general rule, up to three dings, dents, or scratches per panel under 4 inches count as normal wear, along with wheel scratches under 6 inches, while all glass damage and tires that aren't an appropriate match for the vehicle fall under excess wear and use. If your lease includes WearCare, it can waive qualifying excess wear and use charges up to $5,000 in most cases. See your WearCare Addendum for exclusions specific to your plan.
If repairs come up during your inspection, our Ford-trained technicians work with Original Equipment Manufacturer parts, and it's worth keeping your repair receipts handy to verify completed work at turn-in. Some damage may be covered by your own vehicle insurance too, so give any claims time to process before your return.
At turn-in, you'll sign an Odometer Statement as required by federal law, confirming your vehicle's mileage. If your lease agreement discloses a Disposition Fee, it applies to returned vehicles, though it may be waived if you move into a new Ford or Lincoln lease or purchase.
Ahead of your lease-end inspection, walk around your Ford and take note of anything that might need attention.
Quick Answer: Bring all keys, head restraints, your spare tire, and your owner's manual to your Ford lease return appointment at Gary Yeomans Ford Villages. If you're returning a Mustang Mach-E or F-150 Lightning, bring the charge cord as well.
Depending on your lease agreement and where things stand, you'll generally have a few paths open to you as your Ford lease wraps up.
