Check your lease agreement or Lincoln Automotive Financial Services Account Manager to confirm your mileage allowance and current mileage information.

What happens if my leased Lincoln has excess wear or damage?

When you return your leased Lincoln, the vehicle's condition is evaluated for excess wear and use. Lincoln allows for certain normal wear and use, while excessive damage or other issues may result in charges depending on your lease agreement. Lincoln recommends completing an inspection before lease-end so you have time to review the vehicle condition and address any concerns.

When should I start planning for the end of my Lincoln lease?

It's a good idea to start reviewing your options before your lease maturity date.

Your Lincoln Automotive Financial Services Account Manager can also show your lease-end date, allotted mileage and purchase option information.

Do I have to return my Lincoln when my lease ends?
