5 Tips for Not Exceeding Your Jeep® Lease’s Mileage Limit
There are many benefits to taking out a Jeep® lease when the time comes for your next car, but you want to be sure that you don’t go over the allotted mileage when you’re out on your next great adventure.
Going over your mileage can be quite costly, especially if you don’t let your lender know in advance, which is why our team here at Zeigler Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM is sharing top tips to avoid going over your mileage.
1. Check Your Mileage Regularly
If you know you’re going to forget to check your mileage until it’s too late, it’s useful to set a regular tracking date. Consider checking the mileage on the first of every month, and take a photo and log the mileage in a notebook, so you have careful records.
2. Check the Mileage Before a Big Trip
Open road trips and off-road trips can be a lot of fun, especially in a new Jeep vehicle, but they can also take us pretty far from home—and that means the miles can really add up. It’s a useful practice to check the mileage before you begin your road trip, just to make sure you won’t go over, and when you return.
3. Calculate Your Regular Driving
If you follow a regular routine, like driving to work or school every day, it’s a good idea to calculate the number of miles that is. That lets you know how much you drive every week or month, and how many miles you have left over.
4. Consider Carpooling
Another way to make your work miles work for you is by meeting up with a colleague. This will help to save you both money in the long term and will reduce the number of miles you put on your leased vehicle.
- Extend Your Mileage
If you believe it’s likely you’ll go over your miles, try to negotiate with your lease team, like the financing team at our Schaumburg, IL Jeep dealership. You may be able to buy a mileage extension for less than it will cost to pay overages.
