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.

You love your car today, but what happens when you want something new in a year or so? Plans change. Family grows. Or maybe you just want a new car every year.

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.

Which SUVs and Vans Have the Most Cargo Space in 2025?

Charlie is the man! We’re so happy with our experience. Charlie went above and beyond to make sure we got exactly what we wanted... a 2025 black on black stick Jeep that’s absolutely perfect. He put in the extra effort to get the deal done and made the whole process smooth from start to finish. You can tell he genuinely cares about his customers. Highly recommend Charlie and the team if you want someone who’ll really go to bat for you.

My wife and I have been working with Dave and Vantage Auto Group for over 5 years now, across 7 cars for our family, and the experience has been consistently outstanding. Dave is always professional, thorough, and a true advocate for his clients. His persistence and dedication make the process smooth and stress-free, and he takes the time to ensure every detail is handled with care. I’ve personally recommended Dave and Vantage to several friends, and they’ve had the same positive experience. His staff is punctual, cordial, and a pleasure to work with, bringing a level of service that goes far beyond what you’d expect from traditional, impersonal salespeople. Dave and his team truly take it to a new level. If you’re looking for a trusted partner in the car shopping process, I highly recommend Vantage Auto Group.

Working with Vantage Auto Group was a real pleasure. They made the leasing process easy, without any of the normal stress of going to and dealing with the dealership. This is my second time working with Dave and his staff and it was as smooth the second time as it was with the first lease.

Great experience from start to finish with the team. Made the process very easy and worked with us through the whole process, answering any and all questions. And actually returned all phone calls and texts. Ended up with the car we wanted at the price we wanted.
