We turned out '99 9-5 into Chase, and got socked with a lot of charges that I feel were not right. But we'd dropped it off, they had the car, and fighting it was going to be a real challenge.
Specifics:
- wear and tear - we had taken the car to have any little dings taken out by a repair shop we trust. They did a great job (about $700), but Chase charged us another $800 - way more than expected.
- tires - we had to buy one new tire after a blow-out. Could not find the same make as the originals, so used one that the tire dealer said was comparable. We got charged for a new set of tires, as the ones on the car were not all the same. As someone said earlier, check the fine print!
The dealer apparently has no influence when dealing with a third party leasing company, so your recourse is dealing directly with them.
We bought our new car--don't want to deal with those hassles again (and we were 15K miles over our limit!).
