We review each active account individually to determine eligibility for SCRA protection. There may be different benefits available for different account types. Our Military Customer Support team will help you identify the available benefits for each of your accounts.

No, the SCRA is only for active-duty military customers at this time. If you’re a veteran and called to active duty, you may be eligible for SCRA protections.

Our dedicated Military Customer Support team can be reached at 1-855-719-9693 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday.

After proper documentation has been received and SCRA eligibility has been determined, a member of our Military Customer Support team will call you to discuss next steps. You’ll also receive a letter in the mail to the address on file.

SCRA Protections

Yes, your monthly payment is still required when the rate is reduced to 6%.

No, the SCRA also allows eligible service members to cancel or terminate your lease without paying certain early termination charges or penalties. However, you may still be responsible for some end-of-lease amounts such as past due payments up to the date of termination, taxes, excess mileage and/or excess wear related to your vehicle(s).

Once your lease has been approved for SCRA early termination, we will outline next steps for you. Your originating dealership is the best place to turn in your vehicle when you want to terminate your lease. If you have moved a significant distance, please reach out to your local participating GM dealership to ensure they are available to accept the vehicle for turn-in.

If you experience any issues, feel free to call us at 1-855-719-9693 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday.

Yes, please obtain a receipt that shows your mileage, the dealership name and point of contact for your records from the dealership.
