Lease Return

Pre-Inspection

Porsche Financial Services Canada offers a complimentary pre-inspection of your vehicle, conducted by a third-party provider prior to the conclusion of your lease. While optional, this pre-inspection provides awareness of any necessary repairs that will need to be made prior to your lease-end date, helping you to understand or avoid excess wear charges.

Before your lease is up, you will be contacted by a lease-end representative to assist with scheduling an appointment at the time and location that is most convenient for you. This could be at your home, office, or at an authorized Porsche Centre. You can also contact us at 1-866-321-2933.

Our third-party inspection provider, AutoVIN, will inspect your vehicle upon lease return. Damages and wear that do not meet the guidelines outlined below* are considered beyond normal wear and tear, and subject to charges. You will have the opportunity to repair or replace these areas prior to your lease return.

*This guide highlights common examples of what is considered excess wear and tear. Scheduling a complimentary pre-inspection is the most accurate way to determine billable excess wear.
