Kia Finance has provided leases to millions of Kia drivers. Through servicing so many customers and their cars, we’ve come to precisely understand what’s required to efficiently close a lease. From that, we created this lease-end overview with all the information and resources you’ll need, including:

• The steps to getting a new Kia or keeping your current one

• A simple to-do list to follow if you choose to turn in your vehicle

• Our dynamic Self-Assessment tool, which makes identifying potential excess wear and use charges a snap

We'll mail you a Lease-End Kit four months before your contract maturity date to remind you to take action. You can also download a print-friendly version.

PERFORM A SELF-ASSESSMENT

Before returning your vehicle, identify excess wear and use and get an estimate of potential charges with our easy-to-use process. Self-Assessment provides an estimate only and is not binding. Final wear and use charges will be determined through a formal inspection after vehicle turn-in. Estimates do not reflect state sales tax.
