This is the only Tesla lease return video in TH-cam.
I was going to lease now that the deals are so good.. all these lease horror stories keeping me away I think. The fact you can’t sell or buy your lease should be illegal.. that’s crazy they remove all leverage.. most companies will just eat any of those fees if you re-lease or purchase from them. This whole process is wild
Very helpful!! Thank you! I definitely tint my car so that's good to know!
Haven't really seen videos about leasing a Tesla, so thanks for posting this vid! Been considering buying or renting a Model Y, but definitely leaning towards buying, especially after factoring in the incentives and seeing stuff like this vid. 👍
Thanks for the great information!
Thanks for this info!
Not a big deal, way less than payments to keep the thing 72 mo. When your out of warranty the costs to repair teslas is insane. Would only lease one. My buddy had a X and after warranty bills fixing $5-10k regular
Great video. Thanks for sharing. What was the disposition fee?
Good info to know. My lease ends at the end of September. I do have some wheel damage and it sounds like their fee for wheel damage is cheaper than local wheel repair so I’ll just eat that one.
My biggest fear is the tires. Even going non MPSS 4S is expensive and I may be on the hook for another $1000 tire install just to hand it right back :/
Thank you
Is checking the tire tread a normal procedure for a lease? As long as they are not bald it should be wear and tear. Especially after 36000 in 36 mos on a lease / tires
How to return and get a new Tesla (lease). Can we do in a same process or 2 different process
does Tesla offer insurance to purchase, to cover things like rim rash and minor dents, etc so you don't have to stress out when returning the car? Thanks.
I didn't lease or even consider leasing when I got my Tesla. This is good information, thank you.
When I returned my Audi A5 I didn’t even have to schedule anything. I just walked into a dealership and dropped off the keys and they asked where it was parked. They didn’t even walk out to see it. If Tesla is going to put me through this BS I am no longer conflicted about getting some other kind of EV. To hell with Elon.
Be very careful doing that. I did that with Nissan on an Altima. I got a final bill for the total amount of the car. I called them and asked why since I was under mileage, they told me they never recieved the car. Turns out, the dealership I had returned it to, parked it and forgot about it. It was resolved, but had to notify the credit companies so there was no dings.
Thank for this video. It is so much appreciated. I was thinking about leasing but now I am not sure. This seems like a PITA. I have leased my last 4 vehicles and have always traded them In early for another lease and used the equity I had towards a new lease. Not being able to buy out the lease as an option to avoid these costs or just buy it out because you love it really sucks. Not sure I can deal with that. I like my flexibility.
You’re welcome thank you! This was def a surprise to me as well. Something to think about!
@@PhonesAndDronesso the Tesla website says you can upgrade to the next car after you return your lease. How does that work? You get anything at all towards the new lease?
What if the car doesn't come with floor mats? Am I supposed to buy them to protect their car?
Honestly I was thinking about leasing Tesla in in the future but changed my mind. I think I’ll prefer to rent one just for a week
Just returned my Tesla 3. The girl at Tesla just take the key cards and that's it. I want to dispute the 2 scratches I have on the car that Tesla charges me for 2000 dollars but no where and no body to talk to. I still haven't pay the bill and I hope no one fuck up the car I return and blame me for that. Ugh!!! Love the car but fuck the service!! I'm Uber home with high anxiety
Does anyone know if they allow the HOV lane bumper stickers on lease Tesla? Or will they charge you to remove them from the bumpers ? About to lease a 3.
Can you remove a sticker yourself?
I turn in my lease tomorrow 5/17. I did all the pictures. They are going to charge me $520 for tint and a couple of rim scratches. I’m getting a $500 credit from them anyway so no problem. I’d like to know what happens when you get to Tesla with your vehicle? One guy said he just gave someone the two keys and that was it. That’s all? No inspection at Tesla in person?
Hi, did you you go over your miles at all? How about chips on the front bumper?
No under mileage but about 5k and no major chips
@@PhonesAndDrones Did you receive any credit for being under miles?
Nope. Zero. This is common though
@@PhonesAndDrones that figures...bunch of Tesla crroks charge for every thing but turn a blind eye to low miles.
Oof Im about to go into this process (just got the self inspection email). I wish I knew about it before I leased, luckily the car is excellent shape but I guess we'll see. Thanks for the video.
You’re welcome. Best of luck. Let us know how it goes!
@@PhonesAndDrones Just got the Self Inspection done...I pointed out all the issues including measuring tape next to the issues. They only send me the $170 for the 2 wheel 4 inch curb rash which is expected. I'll update soon. So far no tinted glass fee or issues with small scratch or paint chips I pointed out.
@@kylehill4437 how was it?
@@eccentrek6324 Still dealing with Delivery day tasks...so far the lease bill remains at $170 for wheels. I definitely do NOT recommend leasing Tesla's is pretty scary not knowing if a huge bill is inbound.
@@kylehill4437 I'm monitoring this post as well. lol. My lease is up next year.
My final quote is around 1700 which is crazy as hell. I think everyone should buy instead of leasing, it's a bad move. The worst thing is you can't transfer the FSD you bought on the leased car.
Why would you buy FSD on a Lease???
@@dandan1364 yeah lmao ..
Rekt noob lul caught in 4k lining Elon's pockets xD
It’s common knowledge you can’t transfer FSD between cars… that’s why they have the monthly subscription option
an fsd on lease? lol isnt that stupid?
Not too bad. I will rip my tint off myself! And I have scratches on tires much cheaper than local repair shops. I’ll skip them and let Tesla have it for 60 bucks.
This is Michael. You are being way too kind to Tesla. That's the worst least return process I've ever heard of we've been returning leased cars for over 20 years. I watched the video to know what to expect. I'm glad I did. Good job. Looks like they're a bunch of rip off artists. There is absolutely no good reason they should not allow window tinting if it was done by a professional.
Not a good lease return process, but window tints should absolutely be removed. Not everyone wants tint.
I will not buy a car used if it has aftermarket window tint. Reason is, if that window tent was not put on professionally I’ll end up with horrible looking windows from bubbling and having to remove it myself. Also if the rear window wasn’t done right it could mess up the rear defrost system leading me to have to pay to replace a rear window on top of it.
Seems to me they're geared toward fleecing people. $50 for a keycard replacement; you can buy them from Tesla at 2 for $35. I didn't lease my vehicle, so I don't know if they spell out the requirements at the onset of the lease. (Scratch sizes, window tinting, etc.)
They have to reprogram it… takes time and is a hassle for them. $50 sounds right
Do they offer anything if you want to lease another car when you return? Is your down payment just lost?
It’s lost they don’t give you anything or any incentive. It’s pretty disappointing.
I noticed you didn’t mention anything about excess mileage fee. Did you keep the mileage within the annual allowed threshold? What is the excess mileage fee?
Its .25 per mile
That’s crazy they charge $75 per rim scratch.
Charging for having tint is a deal breaker. Tint shops are charging $500+ just because it’s a Tesla and having to pay extra to remove it is crazy. Never had to do that with any other cars I’ve leased. This will be the last Tesla lease for sure.
It takes 5 min to remove them lol
Tesla doesn’t remove the tint they just need another way to charge
What if you put down a large down payment of $10,000? Can you get another lease at the end of that lease and the money (down payment) rollover into the new lease? I leased three cars in a row and my initial down payment rolled over and my payment didn’t change much, but that was with Volkswagen.
Yeah, In your dreams. Tesla doesn't row that way.
Leasing is silly. Especially for this company
Never put down money on a lease. That’s a huge waste.
Its hilarious how they charge for these little things but never even fix a thing on those cars as they use them for loaners.
Why not sell 3rd party? Your lease contract should have allowed it.
There’s no buy out. End of lease would be the end of lease. Even if you sold it, no one would buy it with a month or two left.
@willywonka2164 not true. Up to 2022 there was no buy out for lessee but it could have been sold to 3rd party.
Interesting. So how does that work? I just went through the process with Tesla and they said i had to return it at the end.
If I drove it for 30 months and sold it to a 3rd party. Wouldn’t they be obligated to give it back in 6 months?
I want to ask all of you, what's advantage going for Leasing a Tesla other than changing of Technology.
Just like leasing any other car, some people just don’t want long term commitment on payments.. and some just want new cars periodically..
Other than that there’s no special advantage between leasing or buying.
no such thing as a 'Tesla dealer" -geez
Tesla customer service sucks Great car but the customer service is horrible
The worse car lease experience ever , i cannot wait to finish my lease 😡😩.
Glad I didn’t get one
Lease return service is very poor
Well Tesla is the best source for buying a used one. Lease returns hopefully get 100 % restored to perfect condition plus you get one year bumper to bumper. warranty to boot. Thank you all for getting hosed on the return so I can get a near perfect used one.
I am planning to lease a car. After watching all youtube videos I found leasing Tesla will be foolish for me as they don't pass the 7500 credit to the consumer and almost all the companies are returning that credit to the consumer.
You are still eligible for the credit. I got it
Question, why would you tint the windows on a lease car? Money down the drain.
For comfort/privacy for the 2-4 years you have the car.
@@joshuab1707 Well my friend, I would never put in money on something that I would. need to take back. But that's me. If you buy it yes but lease? Never!
All about the comfortability it give. I like the privacy also. Worth it to me
@@reinaldocruz1787 as he stated, Tesla is the only company who charges or requires you remove tint. In my experience as well, with Toyota at least, they do not require you remove the tint. They consider it a "value add" item
@@joshuab1707 That is not true, the reason that I personally don't put on tints on leased cars is because they have asked me to please remove them. And please guy's please read your lease terms and condition when you lease a car because not all dealers are the same and don't have the same conditions as others. I have leased Volvo, BMW and they both asked me to remove the tints from the leased car. Anyways, is a waist of money because you don't get that money back.
I hate tinted. You deserve to be punished to install it.
