Lincoln Lease Mileage Allowance & Overage Fees

Lincoln Automotive Financial Services publishes its lease-end steps and fees but no per-mile excess-mileage rate.

Quick answer

How much is the Lincoln lease overage fee? Lincoln Automotive Financial Services does not publish a standard per-mile rate; its lease-end page names none, so look for the excess-mileage charge in your lease agreement. Regulation M requires every US lease to state the excess-mileage charge, so the figure in your contract is the one that applies.

How to find the rate in your Lincoln lease

Lincoln Automotive Financial Services does not publish a standard rate; its lease-end page names none, so look for the excess-mileage charge in your lease agreement. Every US lease must carry an “Excessive Wear and Use” notice, and Regulation M (12 CFR 213.4(h)) requires that notice to “specify the amount or method for determining any charge for excess mileage.” Find that box in your Lincoln lease paperwork: the per-mile figure printed there is your rate.

How to stay ahead of Lincoln overage fees

  1. Find your mileage allowance and per-mile rate in your Lincoln lease agreement, in the excess-mileage disclosure described above.
  2. Divide your total allowance by the number of months in your lease to get your monthly mileage budget.
  3. Log your odometer regularly and compare it to that budget so you spot a problem while small changes still matter.
  4. If you are trending over, ask Lincoln Automotive Financial Services whether it will sell extra miles; the Federal Reserve notes that miles negotiated into the lease often cost less than excess miles at the end.
  5. If you will exceed the limit anyway, compare paying the overage at turn-in against buying the car, which removes the excess-mileage charge where your lease has a purchase option.

Lincoln Lease Mileage FAQ

Lincoln Automotive Financial Services does not publish a standard excess-mileage rate. Lincoln Automotive Financial Services' lease-end page lists excess mileage among what you are responsible for when you return the vehicle, and states no per-mile rate; your lease agreement sets it. Your exact rate is in your lease agreement, because US law requires it to be there.

In your lease agreement: its lease-end page names none, so look for the excess-mileage charge in your lease agreement. Under Regulation M (12 CFR 213.4(h)), a US lessor must disclose "the amount or method for determining any charge for excess mileage." Look for the "Excessive Wear and Use" notice in your contract: the excess-mileage charge is stated with it, and it overrides any figure you read online.

Your allowance is whatever you agreed to at signing, and it is printed on your lease. The Federal Reserve notes that 10,000, 12,000 and 15,000 miles a year are common and that you can negotiate other limits.

Federal Reserve: negotiating the mileage limit

Ask Lincoln Automotive Financial Services before you sign. The Federal Reserve notes that it often costs less to negotiate a higher mileage limit in the lease than to pay for excess miles at the end.

Track your odometer against your mileage budget (total allowance divided by lease months) and correct early, while you still have time to change how you drive. If you will go over anyway, compare the turn-in charge with buying the car: the Federal Reserve notes that if you purchase your leased vehicle at lease end you are not responsible for excess mileage charges. LeaseMiles tracks your pace automatically and warns you before you cross the line.
