Prestige Toyota provides you with a Wear and Use guide that will help clarify what we might find as excessive wear and use.

Normal wear and use to a vehicle is to be expected after a Leasing period. We can all relate to the occasional scratch and scuff. However, damages exceeding normal wear and use may be chargeable to you upon lease-end.1

Prestige Toyota has a excess wear and use guide to help avoid and prevent any surprises and charges. Please review our general Wear and Use Guidelines below for examples of what is considered excessive. The examples provided are for your convenience and may not include all instances of excessive damage that may subject you to additional charges.2
