Should the rental car call me to their place to show me tha damages of the car or even made a phone call that the car was found and should they give an on the spot estimate or call me on the phone or mailed me a letter regarding the damage of a stolen car? I rented a car the loss of one day i asked my visa insurance to pay it its 56$. SO i told the rental to deal with them abt the 56$. What happened I did not know that they were askin my insurance damages for the car I rented w/c is 545$. I did not receive a letter dat there were damages. Is this acceptable? 4 months after the recovery of the car they sent me a letter stating that my visa did not pay the 545$ and I should pay it. They also sent me a quotation of their company but not the quotation of the vendor were they said they bought the parts. There was is Wheel kit that cost 310. What was that ? Do i have to question them about this and ask them for police report of the damages when the car was found?

If the car was stolen, and the police were notified, and there is a record of the car being stolen then no you are not required to pay for damages, its there insurance that will pay the damages.

again- you will absolutely be responsible. When you signed the contract with them you stated that you would pay for any damages that happened to the car until the car was safely back in their hands. Well, the car was damaged.. and now you owe. I guarantee that they have documents and pictures to back up their claim for damage and they will likely let you take a look at it. But you dont have many rights beyond that... they are a big car company.. they arent trying to rip you off.. they just want their rental back in preloss condition. It doesnt matter that they took 4 months to notify you.. that doesnt affect anything. It probably took them that long to get it fixed... get all the receipts.. submit it to visa.. have it get denied.. and then call you. Sorry charlie.. you didnt pay for the coverages.. you owe this. Pay it timely or you can expect collections companies to call you and your credit to be affected.

If you're the hirer and you'd reported the loss to the police as well as to the rental car, you have no case to answer!
