Returning a company car
When your leasing period expires, it is unfortunately time to return the company car, which is done via an FDM test center. Below we go through how to return the car and what you need to be aware of.
Returning your company car
If you book an appointment online, you (or a representative from your company) have the option to follow the test assistant's inspection from a distance. When the inspection is completed, we will examine the report together to ensure that potential damages and defects are documented in the report.
How should the car be returned?
Your company car must be returned to an FDM test center on the expiry date of the leasing contract. If the expiry date falls on a weekend or a public holiday, the car must be returned on the last working day before the ordinary expiry.
When you return your leasing car, it must be freshly washed, vacuumed and cleaned and emptied of personal belongings. You must also remember to bring tires (summer and winter tires with nuts), all keys, anti-theft protection, remote controls and all of the car's documents.
Examination of the car
Upon return, the car is examined by FDM for possible damages and defects. If you do not wish to be present during the car inspection, you must still book a time in advance for drop off.
Any damage caused by mounting of accessories or traffic and collision damage must either be reported to the insurance company or paid for by the lessee.
