Update on my lease end:
I leased an Acura THX before returning my '04 convertible in May. I put new tires on the car and had the bumpers refurbished and a few dings taken out. It had 20,000 miles on it and looked like new. As part of the Acura deal, Acura wrote a check to Saab Fin. for my last (April) lease payment. Unfortunately, though I didn't realize it, my bank account had already been drafted for the last payment. So Saab had a double payment for the last month.
I called Saab Financial within twenty-four hours thinking this would be easy to deal with hoping they could just do an electronic refund to my bank. I was told by several people, after several calls, that they would not refund any payments so close to a lease end "in case I owed money for war and tear." I was told that I would receive a check after the car was turned in. I didn't like the answer, but I didn't see an alternative.
Two weeks ago, I started calling to find out why I had not received my final paperwork with a check. After reading remarks in my record, the phone agent was silent for a few minutes. She said that the "extra" payment had been added to the principal and because they had sold the car to my dealer (two months ago) for $3500 under the residual price they could not refund my money. I have called everyday other day since and have been promised a call back from a supervisor each time. No one ever returns the calls. Am I out $550?
BTW, the dealer sold the car for $3000 over residual value, so the dealership did quite well.
