Returning Your Toyota Lease at Longo Toyota
Is your Toyota lease coming to an end? Whether you leased your vehicle from Longo Toyota or another dealership, our Lease Retention Department in El Monte, CA, can help you explore your lease-end options. You can purchase your current Toyota, upgrade to a new vehicle, explore an extension, or simply return your leased vehicle.
Important: Where Can You Return a Toyota Lease?
Vehicles leased through Toyota Financial Services must be returned to an authorized Toyota or Lexus dealership. You cannot complete a standard TFS lease return at an unrelated third-party dealership.
You do not have to return your vehicle to the dealership where you originally leased it. Most authorized Toyota and Lexus dealerships can process eligible lease returns from other locations, subject to confirmation. Your originating dealership is required to process your return.
If you leased your Toyota from another dealership in Southern California, contact Longo Toyota to confirm acceptance and arrange your lease return. Our Lease Retention Department can help you understand the process and discuss your next steps.
Call our Lease Retention Department at (626) 539-2113 to get started.

Steps to Return Your Toyota Lease
- Contact our Lease Retention Department. Call (626) 539-2113 before your lease-end date to confirm acceptance and arrange your return. Toyota Financial Services recommends contacting the dealership approximately 30 days before lease maturity.
- Review your lease agreement. Check your mileage allowance, remaining payments, potential disposition fee, and any excess wear and use charges. Your financial institution determines applicable lease-end charges.
- Prepare your vehicle. Gather all vehicle keys, your owner's manual, original equipment, and any applicable tools or accessories. Review your lender's lease-end checklist and complete any required paperwork.
- Bring your vehicle to Longo Toyota. Visit our New Car Sales Department at 3534 N. Peck Road, El Monte, CA 91731, at your confirmed return appointment and ask for a Lease Retention Manager.
- Complete your lease return. Our team will guide you through the applicable return documentation and odometer disclosure. Keep copies of your completed paperwork for your records and follow any remaining instructions from your leasing company.
Please note: Your leasing company may assess a disposition fee, excess mileage charges, excess wear and use charges, or other amounts under your lease agreement. Returning your vehicle early may also result in additional charges. These obligations are determined by your lender and lease terms, not by Longo Toyota.
Start My Lease ReturnToyota Lease Return FAQs
Can I Return My Toyota Lease to a Different Dealership?
Yes. If your vehicle is leased through Toyota Financial Services, you can return it to an authorized Toyota or Lexus dealership, even if it is not where you originally leased the vehicle. Your originating dealership is required to process your return, while other authorized dealerships may accept it. Contact Longo Toyota in advance to confirm acceptance and arrange your appointment.
Can I Return My Toyota Lease to a Non-Toyota Dealership?
Not as a standard lease return through Toyota Financial Services. TFS requires leased vehicles to be returned to authorized Toyota or Lexus dealerships. Dropping off your vehicle at an unauthorized third-party dealership does not automatically satisfy your lease obligations.
Can I Return My Toyota Lease Without Buying Another Car?
Yes. You do not have to purchase or lease another Toyota to complete an eligible lease return. Our Lease Retention Department can help you arrange the return process even if you do not plan to replace your vehicle.
Do I Need an Appointment to Return My Toyota Lease?
We recommend contacting Longo Toyota before bringing in your vehicle. This allows our Lease Retention Department to confirm your lease details, verify that we can accept your vehicle, and coordinate your return. Toyota Financial Services recommends scheduling approximately 30 days before your lease ends.
Will I Have to Pay Fees When Returning My Toyota Lease?
Depending on your lease agreement, you may be responsible for a disposition fee, excess mileage, excessive wear and use, remaining payments, or other applicable charges. Certain disposition fee waivers may be available through Toyota Financial Services. Contact your lender or our Lease Retention Department to review your options.
