Quick Answer: A Ford Credit lease-end inspection reviews your vehicle's exterior, interior, tires, mileage, and equipment before turn-in. It's performed by Alliance Inspection Management (AiM) and can typically take place at your home, your office, or Gary Yeomans Ford.
A Ford Credit lease-end inspection reviews the condition of your Ford before it's returned. Ford Credit arranges this through Alliance Inspection Management (AiM), an independent third-party inspection company. Most inspections can take place at your home, your office, or a local Ford dealership.
Ford Credit recommends completing the Wear and Use Evaluator Card self-assessment first, then scheduling your complimentary inspection within about 60 days of your lease-end date. Scheduling early gives you more time to review your results and make any repairs before turn-in.
Some wear is expected on a leased vehicle. Ford Credit's Wear and Use Guide outlines what's considered normal versus excessive. As a general guide, up to three dings, dents, or scratches per panel under 4 inches are typically considered normal wear, along with wheel scratches under 6 inches, while all glass damage and any tires that aren't an appropriate match for the vehicle fall under excess wear and use. If you purchased WearCare, it can waive qualifying excess wear and use charges up to $5,000 in most cases. See your WearCare Addendum for exclusions specific to your plan. Reviewing your guide ahead of time can help you know what to expect at inspection.
If your inspection turns up repairs, our Ford-trained technicians use Original Equipment Manufacturer parts, and we recommend keeping your repair receipts on hand to verify completed work at turn-in. Some damage may also be covered by your own vehicle insurance, so allow time for any claims to process before your return.
At turn-in, you'll sign an Odometer Statement as required by federal law, confirming your vehicle's mileage. If your lease agreement discloses a Disposition Fee, it applies to returned vehicles, though it may be waived if you move into a new Ford or Lincoln lease or purchase.
Before your lease-end inspection, it helps to walk around your Ford and check for anything that may need attention.
Quick Answer: Bring all keys, head restraints, your spare tire, and your owner's manual to your Ford lease return appointment at Gary Yeomans Ford. If you're returning a Mustang Mach-E or F-150 Lightning, bring the charge cord that came with the vehicle as well.
