When leasing, who has to allow early lease termination ? Manufacturer or dealer ?
I'm in the process of leasing a 2017 Mazda 6 GT and am looking for a lease which allows early termination in some way (e.g. making all remaining monthly payments and returning the car, etc.). I talked to a dealer yesterday and he told me that the dealer cannot authorize this, and only "Mazda" can. He told me to contact Mazda directly and ask them this question.
He also replied the same thing when I asked if I can transfer the lease to someone else.
Is the dealer telling the truth, that Mazda itself should be asked this question and not the dealer ?

Terminating a lease early can be very, very expensive. Do not enter into a lease contract, unless you are certain that you can fulfill the terms.

Make the remaining lease payments and walk away! An expensive decision to be sure.

Honda Finance, for instance, does not allow lease assumptions.
