I'm just wondering, My dad passed away last week and he has a 14 F150 leased, has anyone ever had to turn one in under these circumstances? just curious the process, its Ford Credit, I know we r a GM forum, but I imagine the process is similar

Sorry for the loss. Not sure of the details, but when my uncle passed away while leasing a ford my aunt was able to turn it back in. Not to sound morbid, but you will need about 10x more death certificates than you think, everybody seems to need one.

My condolence to you I don't know the answer allot will depend on the setup of the lease. We were asked if we wanted the protection if I were to pass if it was selected it should go smooth.

Sorry for your loss brother. Rip to your father.

 

Just like any finance there is a pay off at end of lease.

I would find out what payoff is and see if there is any equity. The contact ford credit.

Sorry for your loss. Contact Ford credit and see what the options are. Depending on how the lease is written (who all signed the contract), you might be able to just drop it off at the dealer.

Sorry about your father. I lost my dad last year, and I know it's tough.

 

As for the lease if you can't get out of it based on the agreement signed, you might request a payoff and compare to current market value. A local dealer might be able to buy it or sell it for you. My mom sold my dad's truck (it was paid off however) to the local Chevy dealer. They gave her a fair price and she didn't have to have the expense of a second vehicle that she didn't need.

 

Also, it might be good to pose this question on an F-150 forum as those guys would be most familiar with how Ford Credit structures their leases.

 

Either way, good luck and I hope it works out with as little problem as possible.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Z45 · Posted

      The oil filter has NOTHING To do with oil leak. GM sources parts from 1,000's of vendors and as with anything mass produced, flaws are unavoidable.    Putting a larger oil filter will do nothing but satisfy emotions. The OEM filter is designed for the engine and perfectly capable of handling the demands on the engine. Oversize oil filter could result in reduced flow and overall lower oil pressure.

      The Peckish Synapse

      You're better read than that Atlas. 😏   British science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated three adages that are known as Clarke's three laws, of which the third law – that "any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic" – is the best known and most widely cited.   Stribeck and the pivotable Hersey Number isn't voodoo nor snake oil. That part is physics. It's what marketing and bean counters do with it that is snake oil and voodoo.    Stribeck is the relationship between Hersey and the Coefficient of Friction. Within the Hersey Equation if viscosity and viscosity is 'Dependent' on.......heat.......and.......viscosity index or the temperature to viscosity slope.    Specifically Hersey is the viscosity AT THE TEMPERATURE IN THAT LOCATION FOR THAT SLOPE.   Hydrodynamic lubrication exist when the film thickness in the location is 3X the Ra roughness of the surface. This is irrespective of the hardness of the substrate. To obtain that thickness X viscosity is required for Y velocity at Z load. That's a lot of moving parts. It is also impossible to maintain in an ICE but nearly possible with a turbine under constant load.    What does that mean? Error heavy and operate light. Wear is inevitable but the rate of wear and the milage obtainable are a function of prevailing conditions and HABITS. The only penalty is viscous drag and at fractions so low as to be well worth the effort. Double the life, half the manufacturing carbon foot print. Greed is the only impediment.    The materials generated by SwRI are the RESULT not an estimation or a hypothesis.    Don't delude yourself sir, EV's have as many pitfalls as ICE's. We just don't know what they are yet and it will take longer to sort as MARKETING and GREEDY CEO's have had more time to polish the turd they are selling.

      You can always count on greed to prey on ignorance and stupidity.    Friend bought a 2019 Ford Flex and asked me about using Valvoline R&P 5W30 in it. Told him give the miles on it and the fact it wasn't yet using oil that it was a good plan. He uses a Valvoline quick change shop for his oil service.   First they tell him that isn't the oil the OEM recommends. He told them he didn't care what the OEM thought. Then they floated the, "But it will void your warranty"    His reply was it's a 2019, there is no warranty and informed them their knowledge of the law was lacking.    Then they tell him 'But it will ruin your motor"!.    Mine to ruin he says. Finally they give in and charge him 150% the semi-syn price    Point it the brainwash is so embedded that even the service industry is drunk on their swill. The public is right behind them. Echoing the same lies on every forum and media platform. If the end goal is indeed EV then I'd say that ship is about built.
