Pre-Return Inspection
A Pre-Return Inspection is optional, but beneficial to get ahead of any repairs that may need to be addressed prior to returning the vehicle. Make getting a new vehicle at the end of your lease as smooth as possible by scheduling a complimentary pre-return inspection. Here are three benefits:
Complimentary Service
GM Financial uses a third-party service, AutoVIN, to provide pre-return inspections. It’s free to you and can potentially save you money since you’ll get a condition report of your vehicle prior to lease end.
Peace of Mind
The inspection can help identify excess miles and any excess wear you could be charged for at the end of your lease. From there, you can decide to either make the repairs or budget for additional charges when you turn in your vehicle.
Convenient Scheduling
Your pre-return inspection can take place at home, at work or at your dealership. Have your VIN and GM Financial account number nearby and schedule your appointment at AutoVINLive.com. Have questions? Message us in MyAccount.
