You need to review the terms of your lease.
Have you communicated your situation with the lessor?

Asked and responded, please only post your question one time. Thank you.

A lease is generally just like a car loan, You bought it! The difference is that you did not make as large of a down payment as a purchase. Your choices are, let them repossess it and take the hit on your credit rating, or find someone to take over the lease from you. Sorry. Been in the same boat for almost 6 months now, and it isn't pretty out there.

No, you can not return the car without suffering a penalty. If you "return" the car it will be considered a voluntary repossesion and will negatively effect your credit history.
