FAQ

Short answers to common questions. For site issues only, use Support.

Is this site only for U.S. residents?

The content is primarily U.S.-focused. Costs, taxes, registration, insurance rules, and lease terms vary by state and by country.

Do I have to service a leased vehicle at the dealer?

Usually no for routine maintenance — independent shops are typically fine if you follow the schedule and keep records. Warranty repairs generally require an authorized dealer. Always check your lease terms.

Who pays for winter tires on a lease?

In most leases, you do. The key is returning the vehicle in acceptable condition (including tire tread and correct size/spec). Many people store the original tires and reinstall them at lease return.

Are currency conversions on calculators live?

No. Conversions are approximate and for educational comparison only; we do not use live exchange-rate APIs.

Do you review quotes or recommend mechanics?

No. Support is limited to site issues only.
