I would suggest that hearsay as vickie has published is unreliable. And officious intermeddling isnt good for anyone.

Leased a 2001 F-150 from Jordon Ford in SA. 4 months before my lease ran out they called me in to "discuss" my options. Option 1, Trade the leased vehicle in on a new one. If I did that, I would either have to GIVE them a check for the balance of the 4 payments @ $450 ($1800) or put the $1800 on top of the price of a new vehicle. Option 2, buy the vehicle outright. When I bought the vehicle, the asking price was $26k. The price of new vehicles has crashed. My balance was $15.5k. I could buy a brand new one for $18K. Didn't make a whole lot a sense to buy a 3 year old vehicle with 30k miles on it for $3k less. Option 3, drive it for the last 4 months. Since I was going to have to pay the $1800 either way I might as well get what I was paying for and use the truck. A week later I went to another dealer. He told me that since I was coming off a lease I had an automatic $1000 rebate coming, something Jordon "forgot" to mention. As for your friend, in the lease contract it is spelled out what needs to be done at the end of the lease. The salesman ripped her off. That said, she should have gotten everything down in writting. You know what they say, if a car salesmen's lips are moving, he's lying.
