Hertz accused of “ruining innocent lives” by filing false stolen car reports against customers

Hertz admitted it files on average 3,365 police reports every year alleging a customer stole one of its rental cars. All across the country, hundreds of people claim they were falsely arrested after Hertz filed a police report involving a stolen car. Some of these people were held at gunpoint. Some spent weeks or even months in jail. But none of them stole a car, according to their attorney.

They literally sat in the back/behind counters even though you returned them in-store as opposed to the night drop (which they claim is how&why late fees were “mistakenly” tacked on).

    I looked it up. This guy's personal vehicle was damaged in a collision and his insurance company rented the temporary replacement from Hertz. I suspect that he assumed the insurance was dealing with Hertz. I have no idea whether or not the notes were actually left, whether they were professional looking, or just handwritten notes on scraps of paper. The victim is a retired doctor, who may have expected more professionalism from Hertz, and who didn't see or read the notes.

The second guy had indeed rented a car and hadn’t returned it still three months later. That makes me wonder about the more than 300 other cases. How many of them are people who never rented the car in the first place but we’re victims of identity theft, how many are people who rented the car and never gave it back, and how many had a completely different scenario? We cannot make any conclusion about a pattern based on these two very distinctly different scenarios

    Hertz needs to be held accountable! Unless the executives at Hertz are stupid, they MUST know that criminals are not stupid and would not use their own identity. The first thing they should have done was to confirm identity theft or not. They just wanted to get insurance claim as soon as possible without caring about the innocent people they knew would get hurt. Their negligence for convenience should be held accountable!!! This so horrible I hope these people sue in court and surely they must win so this does not happen to anyone else. These “settlements” are not enough, they need to a systemic change. Maybe they should start by having a better customer identity verification system which is obviously not working. Beginning to think they want some cars stolen to collect. Do you think banks give out loans to people with fake identity, no they have a system in place that works most of the time. It’s costing the insurance companies and innocent people while all they have to do is file a police report to collect insurance. That’s not right.

    Law enforcement *can* ask for details / paperwork on warrants for verification when something seems off--like a citizen without a criminal record stating that they've never even been to the state where a supposed cause is claimed. Just assuming validity in a case like that is hubris, not just "doing your job." LE knows that this happens, and especially if they saw it was related to Hertz, they should certainly be aware that this company has been renowned for filing false theft claims against its own customers for years. As soon as multiple reports were made about this years ago and the company refused to take responsibility, I stopped renting from them and will never use them again. They went bankrupt, but it should have been a liquidation, not reorganization of a criminal enterprise.

    I'm confused, the first man and others with stolen identity did not steal cars and are being treated unfairly completely.

Seems like two different situations logically.

He never even said why he still had the car 3 months past when it was due. The first dude though got a shitty deal. I feel sorry for him.

Ruining peoples lives because they failed their job. That's filing false reports, and probably some fraud as well. But look at who the ceo is, look at his money made.. This was done intentionally and that needs investigation from the top down to the employees who probably became involved without knowledge.

    Since the two examples they give were so dramatically different, I find it hard to say that this is a particular kind of systemic problem. The first guy was a victim of identity theft, and it appears that hertz was also a victim of that. But the second guy seemed to have kept the car three months after he was supposed to have returned it. They seem like two entirely different circumstances, which makes me wonder if the other 300 and some odd circumstances are also different. Is it really a single systemic problem, or is it being presented as a single systemic problem when it might be several dozen different problems?

We get there on an as camero leave with a hyundai veloster and had to pay 500 more than the sports car because of a fee, mind you they took the payment and the debit card with no issue 3 weeks before…. We drive to our airbnb only to have the vehicle towed half way through the trip from our parking space with no explanation by a tow company located right next to the nearest hertz… where they then attempted to charge us after us being stranded 4 days using uber to get around… called the entire trip to no avail, they never contacted the tow truck company and even worse we paid for coverage of tows and accidents… Hertz is rotten

    Although my Hertz rental was returned on time they fraudulently charged my credit card an additional $2,300. They gave me return instructions for evening hours (up until 11 pm) but when I arrived at 8 pm there was no one there. The interior lights were on, a computer monitor was on, and my phone calls to the location were unanswered. I locked the keys in the vehicle which was parked directly in front of the entrance so it could not be missed. 3 weeks later they charged my card. I'm starting a small claims action.I forgot to mention, before I was able to rent this vehicle I was forced to pay a $115.00 fee for running a toll booth in New Jersey 7 years ago when I had a prior Hertz Rental Car. For what it's worth "I was never in New Jersey"!
