As the saying goes, "the weather is unpredictable." In the process of traveling, it is inevitable that cars will break down, accidents will occur and vehicles will be stolen. If it is an automobile performance problem, such as non-human damage to automobile parts, the traveler should contact the lessor as soon as possible to negotiate and deal with it. It is not allowed to disassemble the parts or equipment of the car by itself, otherwise, once a dispute occurs, it will be difficult to argue it out, and even cause the lessor to claim compensation. If you repair your car in other places with the consent of the lessor, remember to keep the original parts as evidence to pay for the repair.
Some leasing companies have emergency rescue services. Once they know that the vehicle is out of order, they will immediately repair the vehicle or replace it with a new one for the tenant. When traveling, they should know the service content in detail and try to choose a company with a wide range of services.
Under normal circumstances, the maintenance cost of natural damage to vehicles shall be borne by the lessor.
The second trick: don't run away when something happens.
In the event of a traffic accident or other accidents, the lessee must protect the site and not escape, and notify the traffic control department and the lessor as soon as possible. If the lessee escapes, even after returning the car, there may be legal consequences such as the vehicle being detained according to law, and the losses caused thereby shall be borne by the lessee.
In addition, the car rental contracts of many leasing companies stipulate that after a traffic accident, the money exempted or refused by the insurance company should also be borne by the lessee. If the vehicle is damaged, the lessee shall bear the accelerated depreciation expenses of the vehicle in addition to the maintenance expenses. The specific amount shall be determined by both parties through consultation in the contract. Part of the loss of rent caused by traffic accidents to the lessor shall also be borne by the lessee. All the terms are unfavorable to the lessee. Therefore, it is recommended that car rental travelers drive carefully to prevent accidents.
The third measure: don't panic when you lose your car.
Don't panic once the vehicle is stolen or lost. First report the case to the public security department, assist the police to solve the case and recover the vehicle.
Don't worry even if you can't get your car back. Generally, the lessor has taken out car damage insurance, burglary insurance and third party liability insurance in accordance with laws and contracts, and the beneficiary is of course the lessor. If the lessee is indeed at fault, the liability for compensation is only the insurance company's refusal to pay compensation and the loss of the lessor's rent.
