2026 Audi Q3
Leased a new Q3 in the US last week. The finance director insisted that I get two kinds of protection since I live in a city with bad winters and potholes, will park the car on the street most of the time, etc. One is dent protection ($1K) and the other is wheel and tire ($2,300). The dent protection also came with interior protection. I have a dog so that could also be good. She talked me out of the Audi lease-end protection and claimed these two are more comprehensive. I just wanted to get a gut check on whether this was a total scam or actually worthwhile. Maybe I can cancel if I catch it soon enough. Thx in advance.
The lease on the vehicle came out to $711 / mo for 36 mo with $32K of RV on an MRSP of $51K. The added protection added about $90 / mo.
