Kia Lease Return Center in Des Moines, IA

Kia Lease Return Center in Des Moines, IA

No matter where you sourced your leased Kia model, you can conveniently return it right here at Kia of Des Moines. Our hassle-free process ensures a streamlined experience, from our dedicated Finance Department to our array of new vehicle options. 

The Advantages of Our Lease Return Center

Why should you bring your leased Kia to our dealership? For starters, there’s the convenience factor. If you recently moved to the Des Moines area but started your lease in a different location, you can bring your Sorento or Telluride to us instead of making the trek back to its origin. As an authorized dealer, we accept all Kia lease returns. So, whether you’ve been zooming down Route 35 in the K4 or enjoying the modern EV9, you can come by our lease return center. Once you do, you can choose from our varied selection of models to take on your next outing to Raccoon River Park. Our inventory includes the latest from the Kia lineup, allowing you to upgrade your model to the most recent iteration. 

Your Return Options

You have several options when your lease ends. As previously mentioned, we have a wide inventory of Kia models to choose from, so you could start a new lease for another 24 to 48 months. You could also choose to buy the vehicle currently in your possession. This may be the right option for you if there was any damage to your car during your leasing period. You may also find that you want to commit to ownership, so you can either buy your current model or purchase a different one from our range. Of course, you could simply hand in your keys and be on your way without purchasing or leasing a new vehicle. 

What You Can Expect During the Lease Inspection Process

Now that your lease is nearing completion, you may be wondering what happens next. It's important to keep track of the lease's maturity date, so you can turn in your model in at the right time. Once you bring your vehicle to our dealership, our qualified inspectors will go over your Kia model and note its wear and tear. If you’re nervous about this examination, you can prepare ahead of time by performing your own evaluation. Additionally, cleaning it up and taking care of any routine or unexpected service appointments will help to minimize extra fees. If you have questions about this process or your leasing options, contact our team today!

How Long Do Leasing Contracts Last?

  • You'll typically have between 24 to 48 months before you need to return your Kia model to a lease return center.

We had a great experience getting into a lease with Kia of Des Moines. We were in and out quickly, had our paperwork done promptly, and everything explained to us. More importantly we got into a payment we could afford that was better than the competition. We considered Toyota and Ford. Toyota has struggled with inventory that fit our needs, and Ford has stopped producing Sedans. Regardless, we are pleased with Kia.

I recently purchased a 2027 Kia Telluride Hybrid from Kia of Des Moines. I test drove the vehicle and obtained a quote for my current vehicle trade-in and within an hour we made a deal. It was a smooth process and there was no pressure from the salesman Jeff Davis. I didn't have a check or my current vehicle title with me, so they allowed me to make a wire transfer from my bank and I drove my new vehicle home that day. I returned the following day with the title for my old vehicle. It was a great experience not only with the sales staff, but also with Jim Voss in finance and with Jacob Kline in delivery who set up my new vehicle. I appreciated the fact that no one pushed an extended warranty program which a lot of dealers do these days. Kia already has an awesome warranty program.

We recently bought a new Telluride from them, and we enjoyed the experience. It was our first time buying a new car and they were very patient with us and weren't pushy at all. They didn't try any tricks with us and are very satisfied. We enjoyed our process working with them.

Had a great experience at Kia of Des Moines buying my 2026 K4 GT-Line Premium. My salesman JR was good, honest, and patient through the whole process. He worked hard to get me the right car at the right price and rate, and treated me with respect. It was month-end and the dealership was really busy, so we didn’t get to take the traditional photo with the flower on top of the car. But that’s all good and totally understandable. Before we left, one of the managers came over, shook my hand, and thanked us for our business. That kind of personal touch meant a lot, especially on such a hectic day. JR and the whole team at Kia of Des Moines were professional from start to finish. If you’re in Des Moines looking for a Kia, ask for JR. Highly recommend!

I purchased a new Kia K5 GT Line from Kia of Des Moines after my daughter’s 2023 Kia K5 was rear ended by an uninsured motorist. I’ve purchased many vehicles in my lifetime and I have to say this was the easiest and unpressured car buying experience I’ve ever had. Thank You to Kia of Des Moines staff and or salesman JR. Best Always, Jeff

I had one of the best experiences at Kia. Zack was so helpful and attentive. He listened to what I was looking for and showed me every option that I had available to me. I have never had a car salesman work as hard as he did. He provided top notch customer service. But it didn’t end there. Signing the financial paperwork was quick and seamless. Also, the tutorial that I received at the end of the purchase was also a very pleasant experience. I highly recommend Kia of Des Moines if anyone is looking for a great vehicle and even better customer service.

The salesman and other staff were attentive and worked with my wife and I to get not one, but two new vehicles at a price we could afford! The salesman went the extra mile literally as he had to pull several vehicles to look at until we found the one that had everything we were looking for. Definitely recommend Kia of Des Moines.

We had a very good experience buying our new car at Kia of Des Moines. Their salesperson Gus was very pleasant, helpful and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him to help you. We received a great discounted price on a service loaner with only 1800 miles, but with the full warranty which they extend to 200,000 miles, like any of their new cars. And it was SO nice to pick up the car and be in and out in less than an hour! We definitely recommend Kia of Des Moines to buy a new car! Be sure to tell Gus that Bob sent you!

We bought a Kia K5 from Kia of Des Moines and had an overall great experience. JR helped us through the entire process, and was wonderful to work with. He was very knowledgeable and took time to explain things but was never pushy. After our first visit, we left to think about things. We then texted JR and he was extremely responsive and worked with us to find exactly what we wanted and made our deal happen. We were very impressed and happy with our experience.

I went to Kia knowing I would either not be approved or get a used car. I have been working on my credit. Joe contacted me after I filled out the online pre approval. (While I was at another car lot.)He was amazing!!! He listened to what I wanted and did not try to put me in anything I didn’t want! Within 5 mins he came back with my dream car keys and said I was approved! He made the whole process smooth. He even let me punch the gas to see how she handled. I knew I loved Kia’s before but I will never go anywhere else!!! Joe Thank You!!! Kia team thank you!

Sure enough, just bought our second car with Iia of Des Moines. The experience was smooth, easy and so much quicker than many prior car buying experiences. Bob, Jim and the entire Kia crew took great care of us and we walked out in under 2 hours with a new hybrid Sportage. Thank you for a great experience.
