The dealer issue was when I tried to bring the car in for a recall, one told me he can’t take the car in because I didn’t buy for them, the other told me they can’t take the car if it has less than 11,000 mi on it The third one told me 6 month appointment, and so on. Route 4 Hyundai was the most obnoxious.
That was directly from Hyundai, as senior as I can get it. “Not our problem”
Yeah stop bringing it in for service.
Call one and ask them for a pre inspection. Once they agree, bring it over and let them look at it and tell you if there is any damage.
Once that’s done tell them you are grounding it early. They may ask why, just tell them you are going away for 9 months. None of their business. It’s prepaid and there was no damage in the pre inspection. Give them the keys and walk away.
Based on your lease agreement, your adjusted lease balance (ALB) is 36753.11 as eight months remain in your lease (Feb thru Sep). You’re beyond Jan 1.
There are several ways to compute the ALB which I have posted on LH including that which complies with your lease agreement.
You may want to check to see if you have equity in this vehicle which will likely depend on mileage, and condition as well as the local market. If so, trade it or have the dealer cut you a check. Check Carvana and CarMax. Equity = Market Price (e.g., dealer trade offer) - ALB.
