Hertz threatens to have Kentucky woman arrested. She says she did nothing wrong.

They threaten her with a stolen car report while at the same time charging her credit card? That would be a false and fraudulent police report.

Reporting her as stealing the car when its been paid for is fraud at the least. If the car wasn't stolen then the police are making false arrests based on false information from Hertz, that is also a crime.

Hertz sounds like another word for Scam.

They have arrested people for no reason. A whistleblower came out and a man who worked for the FBI was arrested for his rental car. Hertz is a HORRIBLE company.

Hertz has become a criminal racket!

Boycott them don't RENT from them...

Hertz has been doing this for about 15 years now. The numbers the lawyer gave are low balled, probably because the no conviction rate or hertz drops the case. The courts demanded how many times a year they claim stolen vehicles and it averages about 3600 a year for the past 10 years. I saw the cops pull into a gas station and they found a "stolen Hertz rental car" that an ex-federal agent had just rented a few hours before. The federal agent was handcuffed and taken to the police cruise. Even after showing the cop the rental agreement and bank statement they kept him in cuffs for a long time. A different man that also had proof of renting the car spent 7 months in jail to have the case dropped once he was able to get to court. Hertz is falsely accusing paying customers for theft and it isn't right. Stop doing business with Hertz and it's affiliates. Call your local politicians and demand they look into this. If you have been a victim of this behavior from Hertz then get a lawyer to look into it for you. You may have the right for reciprocation.

I also blame the Police - They're simply not asking enough questions - you stop a "stolen" vehicle to find the driver stops willingly, isn't known to police and has the keys and a rental agreement. That should sound a few alarm bells and the police should place a few phone calls and get this straightened out. I'd say they're neglecting their duty of reasonable care.

I work for them. I knew about the problem. Never thought it would happen to me, one of their own, but it did. When we rent cars from the company, the system automatically puts our employee Id next to it. Whoever looks at it in any state knows who rented it or who has it. I drove from Tucson to Phoenix AZ and got arrested there. Spent 11 days in jail. All the paperwork and my employee badge meant nothing to cops.

A tiny problem? Allegedly violating basic civil rights is just a tiny problem?

Maybe the cops could stop acting like Hertz’s personal police force?

Hertz never learned you can't bite the hand that feeds you.

Hertz is another example of a company that's dinosaur. The company hasnt innovated and will soon cease to exist. I am never renting from hertz

Why would the cops even get involved? This is a civil matter.

People have been Arrested and thrown in Jail because of this. Back in 1994 I rented a Hertz Car in Orlando and mistakenly left my Credit Cards at home so I had to pay a $500.00 deposit to rent it. When I went back to return the car I asked for my $500.00 Deposit back and they tried to tell me I never put a deposit down to rent the Vehicle. So I looked at my receipt and there it was $500.00 deosit. So I showed the counter person my Receipt and she said well it says on the Computer I did not make a deposit so I cannot give it back toi you. So I called the Police and waited for them to come. When the Cops arrived I explained what was going on and The Officer told me this happens all the time at this Hertz rental Location and that there is nothing they can do because it is a Civil Manner. So when I got home I called Hertz Corporate office and explained what happened and they said they would get back to me which they never did. So I went to The New York State Attorney General and explained what happened to me and to my surprise this has been happening to a lot of people from New York that rent from Hertz at this Rental Location in Orlando and they are in the process of investigating it. Well 3 months later i get a call from The New York State Attorney General's Office telling me that I will be getting my $500.00 and a Hertz Card good for 2 Rentals at any Herts Location. After I used the Two free Rentals I stopped renting from Hertz all together.

You have to HURT hertz by not renting from them ! Bankrupt them !

Hertz has stated unless a court or congress makes them change their ways they are not going to do so.

This should be a notice to everybody never rent a car from hertz and to take it seriously or you might end up in jail courtesy of hertz

So basically they make more money by falsely accusing innocent people of theft than they do from renting cars? Understood. "Hertz, don't it"

I think you would have to be insane at this point, to rent a car from Hertz.
