Leasing Help
One of the advantages of leasing through Auto Lease Compare, is that you can enjoy the benefits of driving a brand-new vehicle, particularly those linked to reliability.
All of our lease deals include the full UK manufacturer’s warranty (usually three years) so you can rest easy that if something goes wrong with your vehicle within this period (excluding certain limitations) you shouldn’t have to pay a penny to fix any faults.
It is also handy to know that most car manufacturers include breakdown cover as part of their standard warranty so if you ever do come unstuck, you can call on their help.
To help ease any worries or concerns you may have about a breakdown in your lease vehicle, Auto Lease Compare has put together a short guide to explain what you need to do if your lease vehicle breaks down, who you need to contact and the length of the breakdown cover included.
If you have a maintenance package included in your lease agreement, breakdown cover is usually included for the duration of your contract. In the event of a breakdown, it is important that you call the maintenance team in the first instance who will able to help you. Alternatively, you can call the breakdown recovery service covered under the warranty – we have listed these numbers below.
If you don’t have a maintenance package included in your lease agreement, you will likely still be covered for breakdown as part of the manufacturer’s warranty. Breakdown cover typically varies from one year to five years and usually starts from the date of vehicle registration. We recommend to conform the length of the breakdown cover with the leasing provider when you discuss your lease deal.
If your new car is still covered under warranty, you may also be covered for breakdown recovery. Search for the manufacturer below to find out the length of the breakdown cover included and the contact number you need to call in the event of a breakdown in the UK.
