Volkswagen Lease Return
Important notice regarding inventory shortages and lease turn-in:
Due to the current global situation, automotive supply chains have recently experienced a number of delays and interruptions. These disruptions have caused new vehicle inventory to remain in extremely limited quantities. It’s our suggestion that you begin to consider your options up to one year in advance of the conclusion of your lease. By planning ahead, you can avoid interruptions to the driving experience you’ve grown to love while also ensuring the availability of your next Volkswagen.
Reserving your next vehicle in advance is the best way to continue enjoying the exact options and features that you want while simultaneously preparing for the future. Our team is here to answer any questions you may have regarding your current lease status or reserving a vehicle from our inbound inventory.
Is your Volkswagen lease-end date approaching soon? It’s certainly a smart idea to begin considering all of the options available to you. Our team at Volkswagen of Ann Arbor is dedicated to making your lease return process as simple and straightforward as possible. We’ve assembled this useful guide that explains your available lease-end options to help you make an informed decision.

Volkswagen Lease Return Checklist
Step 1
Review your vehicle’s condition. You can reference the “Wear and Used Guide” contained in your lease contract for more information about excess wear and tear or usage charges. If required, have repairs performed and completed at an authorized Volkswagen dealership to avoid any excess charges.
Step 2
Schedule your lease return inspection. During this inspection, an independent inspection agent will examine your vehicle for any excess wear and use. Afterward, you will receive an inspection condition report, which itemizes any excess wear. Any excess wear will be billed on your Turn-In Settlement Invoice (unless you choose to repair the items prior to turning in). We highly suggest that you discuss the results with your Volkswagen Lease Return Concierge in order to determine your best options.
Prepare for your inspection:
- Clean your vehicle inside and out.
- Verify that all items and components of your vehicle are present. These include all keys, your owner’s manual and maintenance booklet, headrests, and cargo covers (if applicable).
Step 3
Return your vehicle to Volkswagen of Ann Arbor.
