GM Financial's Pre-Return Inspection
GM Financial offers a pre-return inspection through OPENLANE Inspections, its third-party vendor. Booking this two to four months before your lease matures gives you time to handle repairs or budget for charges before turn-in. You'll get an itemized condition report so you know exactly where things stand.
You can schedule your inspection at home, at work, or at Gastonia Chevrolet, whichever is easiest for you. Have your VIN and GM Financial account number on hand when you book.

Deciding What's Next for Your Chevrolet
Once your condition report is in hand, Gastonia Chevrolet can help you weigh returning your vehicle against purchasing it outright or moving into something new. The right call usually comes down to your Chevrolet's condition, your remaining mileage, and what you want to drive next.
If a new Chevrolet is calling your name, our new inventory page is a good place to start, current manufacturer incentives are worth a look, and you can get a head start at our Finance Center.
Thinking About Buying It Outright?
If you'd rather keep the Chevrolet you already know, Mode by GM Financial offers lease buyout loans, or you can discuss purchase and finance options directly with our team. If you'd rather sell it outright instead, our KBB Instant Cash Offer tool is worth a look too.
Quick Answer: Chevrolet lease customers can purchase their leased vehicle at any point in the term. Mode by GM Financial offers lease buyout loans, or contact your dealer to discuss options.
Getting Your Chevrolet Ready for Turn-In
Before your inspection or your final appointment, a quick walkaround helps catch anything worth addressing.
- Exterior dents, scratches, or paint damage
- Windshield chips or cracked glass
- Tire tread depth and overall tire condition
- Interior stains, tears, or excessive wear
- Mileage against your lease agreement
- Anything with your name, address, or financial information removed from the vehicle
- Owner's manual, extra keys, and any accessories that came with the vehicle
Quick Answer: Remove any personal or financial information from your Chevrolet and bring the owner's manual, extra keys, and original accessories to your turn-in appointment.
