<prompt> Human: Hi guys.My mother died a month ago and I am executor of her estate. Probate hasnt gone through yet, so Im in a legal limbo at the moment, but the bills are racking up on this thing and I want to start thinking about it.She had a car lease that has a little over a year left on it. I havent read the contract yet its hidden in a pile of junk halfway across the country... havent got there yet, but as I understand it, these things are expensive to get out of. Early Termination fees apply even when your early termination is due to the fact that you bought the farm. To make matters a little worse, she was confused near the end, had an accident about 1000 bucks of damage to the front bumper and side panel. It looks like she might have had someone work on it, but its definitely not fixed. Im not sure the leasor even knows about it.I already called the company that does the lease. They told me to call the car dealership... but they were perfectly frantic about trying to get me to pay just one more payment. They gave me the definite impression that somebody dying can be a losing deal for them... and I would like it to be, since she was leasing a car out of fear of car repair at a ridiculously high price for ten years or more... they got their piece. Id like to get rid of this car and the payments asap, but I want to pay that jerk at the dealership as little as humanly possible. How do I approach this, when I call the dealership?  <response>: Wait the car was in your mothers name correct? Just return it. When my uncle passed at 51 he was in the same predicament. We just called them, gave them a death certificate and dropped it off. People were actually very nice. They could go after the estate for any unpaid fees but its not up to you to do that.
