Option 2: Return Your Vehicle
Ready to return your Subaru and walk away or try something new? Here’s how to prepare for a smooth lease return:
Step 1: Schedule a Pre-Return Inspection
We recommend a complimentary inspection 30 to 60 days before your lease ends. This will identify potential excessive wear & tear or damage that might result in fees, giving you the chance to make repairs first.
Step 2: What You’ll Need To Bring
When returning your leased car, please bring:
- All sets of keys
- Owner’s manual
- Floor mats, accessories, and any leased equipment
- Current vehicle registration and proof of insurance

Lease-End Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When should I start thinking about my lease-end?
A: We recommend starting the process at least 90 days before your lease ends. That gives you time to explore your options: whether that’s upgrading, buying, extending, or returning your car, all without feeling rushed.
Q: Can I return my Subaru to Twin Falls Subaru even if I leased it somewhere else?
A: Absolutely. We’re happy to accept your leased Subaru return, even if you leased somewhere else originally. Simply schedule a return appointment and our team will take care of the rest.
Q: How do I schedule a lease return or inspection?
A: With a simple phone call or our online form, book a return time or pre-return inspection. We’ll walk you through everything, including to remind you of what to bring and what to expect.
Q: What if my Subaru has a few scratches or dings? Will I be charged?
A: Normal wear and tear is expected, but excessive damage (like deep dents, cracked glass, or torn upholstery) could result in additional charges. That’s why we offer a complimentary pre-return inspection to help you avoid surprises. Subaru includes a $1,000 wear and tear waiver with each lease, accounting for the miles of driving your Subaru would have experienced.
Q: Can I buy my Subaru instead of returning it?
A: Yes! Many drivers do just that! If you love your current Subaru, we can help you buy it out at the pre-set price in your lease agreement. We’ll also walk you through financing if needed.
Q: Are there any benefits if I lease or buy another Subaru?
A: Definitely. Subaru often offers exclusive loyalty incentives to returning lessees, and our team at Twin Falls Subaru will help you stack those savings with any other promotions currently available.
Q: How do I extend my lease?
A: If you’re not ready to part ways with your Subaru, we can help you apply for a lease extension. This gives you extra time while keeping the same monthly payment and terms. Contact us to check your eligibility.
Q: Do I have to do anything after I return my vehicle?
A: Once you’ve completed your lease return and handed in all the items (keys, paperwork, accessories), you’re good to go! We’ll confirm everything has been processed and provide any follow-up documentation you might need.
