LEASEPASS

Change Cars When Life Changes

LeasePass is your built-in exit plan. It’s an optional protection that lets you walk away from your lease or loan after 12 months—even if your car’s value drops. No resale stress. No upside-down payments. Just total flexibility when life changes.

Frequently Asked

What is LeasePass?

LeasePass gives you the option to walk away from your leased or financed vehicle anytime after 12 months. Simply give us 30 days’ notice, and we will buy back your car by paying off the remaining lease or loan balance per program terms.

Does LeasePass work with both leases and loans?

Yes, you can add LeasePass to any eligible new or used vehicle, whether financed via lease or an auto loan.

Why do I need LeasePass with an auto loan?

You might love your car today—but most people don’t want to keep the same car for the full loan term. The problem is, you don’t know exactly when you’ll want to change it or what it’ll be worth when that time comes. LeasePass gives you flexibility. Anytime after 12 months, you can walk away and we’ll pay off your remaining loan balance tied to the vehicle purchase price.

How does the turn-in process work?

Anytime after 12 months, reach out to us 30 days’ before you're ready to switch. We’ll schedule a quick inspection to confirm the vehicle condition and mileage. Before buyback, you’re still responsible for any deferred, skipped, or unpaid payments. LeasePass pays off the remaining lease or loan balance per program terms, handles the title transfer, and closes out your loan or lease. The vehicle is no longer your responsibility — simple, easy, done.

Are there mileage limits?

Drive as much as you need, of course! Just note that if you turn in your vehicle, the buyback amount will be reduced by $0.15 for every mile over your mileage limit—either your prorated lease allowance or 18,000 miles per year (1,500 per month) for financed vehicles.

What if my car has damage when I turn it in?

Normal wear and tear is fine. If there’s damage or excess wear and tear, per our Wear and Tear Guidelines, the buyback amount will be reduced by the cost of the repair.

If the vehicle has an accident on the vehicle history report (e.g., CarFax), it still qualifies for buyback. In that case, we may apply a diminished-value adjustment to the buyback amount based on standard guides.

We just bought our 3rd car from Dave and his group. They make it so easy not having to go to a dealer, I wouldn't do it any other way. You tell them exactly what you want, they find it, get you a great deal and deliver it.....need I say more!!! Dave is a true professional.

Great customer service! Dave was very responsive and worked hard to find the car we were looking for. His pricing was unbeatable and the vehicle was delivered right to our driveway. There was a small issue with the vehicle from the manufacturer, but Dave and his team have been working hard to rectify it. Goes to show their service doesn’t disappear after delivery, and are committed to developing relationships and making longterm customers.

Mark Viegas is an absolute lifesaver. I truly don’t have the words to express how grateful my husband and I are for such an incredible experience - and such a quick turnaround. After my daughters and I were in a very serious car accident early last week, I knew getting a new vehicle would be overwhelming and stressful. Enter Mark Viegas at Vantage Auto Group. From start to finish, he made the entire process unbelievably simple. We shared exactly what we were looking for, and within 48 hours a brand-new car was delivered straight to our driveway. The days of walking into dealerships and negotiating prices are long gone. I will never go back - and neither should you! If you’re in the market for a new car, I can’t recommend Mark enough - reach out to him. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

I can’t thank Sean enough for making my transition seamless and completely stress-free. What can often feel like an overwhelming process was made easy and comfortable from start to finish. He took the time to truly understand my wants, needs, and budget without any judgment, and kept me informed every step of the way. His humor and authenticity were an added bonus and made the experience even more enjoyable. Going from one lease to another in under a week felt effortless and refreshing, even without stepping into a dealership. See you in three years, Sean!
