EXCESS WEAR AND TEAR PLAN
Your Lexus is engineered to amaze, and driving it should be worry free. That’s why we offer Wear Pass and now Wear Pass Plus lease protection.
Wear Pass protects you from an array of additional charges at lease end if your Lexus incurs damage beyond what is normal everyday use.
Wear Pass Plus takes Wear Pass to a new level, allowing you to have certain repairs made during the lease term, while waiving the cost of those repairs.
