At lease end, you return the vehicle to Castle Chevrolet North in agreed-upon condition. We'll inspect it for excess wear, damage, and mileage overage charges. If everything checks out and you're within limits, you simply hand back the keys.

You may owe end-of-lease charges for mileage over your allowance, significant damage beyond normal wear, or any maintenance you skipped. Alternatively, many customers use lease-end as an opportunity to lease or buy their next vehicle-sometimes at a great value.

Our Finance and Sales teams make the lease-end process smooth. We'll review any charges upfront, discuss your options (lease another vehicle, purchase yours, or start fresh), and ensure no surprises. Contact us at **(847) 439-0900** to plan your lease end.
