Vehicle lease maintenance package

Car leasing with maintenance

A car maintenance plan helps you keep your vehicle in excellent condition without worrying about unexpected servicing and maintenance bills. It’s a fixed monthly amount on your lease that covers many of the routine costs of keeping your vehicle on the road.

What's included in a lease maintenance package?

With a vehicle from LeaseCar, you’ll enjoy a brand-new car or van every time you take out a new lease. However, to keep your vehicle in the best condition for the road and to avoid any surprise charges when you return the vehicle at the end of your lease, it’s always a good idea to include a maintenance package.

We can offer a professional maintenance package that’s dealt with in one, simple, fixed cost that’s added to your lease. Here’s what it includes:

Manufacturer servicing

• Scheduled servicing

• Manufacturer service schedules

• Routine maintenance

• Service management

All typically required as part of your leasing agreement in addition to any routine and unexpected maintenance requirements.

Repairs and replacement parts

Normally, you will need to replace items that wear out during normal use of the vehicle (as per our wear and tear guidelines)

Our maintenance package includes:

• Mechanical repairs

• Electrical repairs

• Labour

• Batteries

• Exhausts

• Alternators

• Starter motors

• Cam belts

• Bulbs

• Wiper blades

Tyres

• Premium replacement tyres; no recharges for punctures or damage

• Valve replacement

• Wheel balancing

• Mobile tyre fitting by appointment

MOT testing

With a standard 2 or 3-year lease, you normally won’t have to cover an MOT. However, if you select a lease period longer than this, you will need to factor in a regular MOT. Our package covers MOT testing at accredited garages where the lease length will require the vehicle being retested.

Service booking & vehicle management

Servicing doesn’t have to be a hassle! Forget previous experiences of being squeezed in at your local dealership and having the bare minimum done. Included in our maintenance package:

• Booking handled for you

• Accredited garages

• Wash & vacuum included

• Progress updates on repairs

• Priority booking for urgent repairs

• Reduced downtime

• Courtesy car on request
