What is the name of your state? Washington
We rented a car in South Dakota. My mom rented and paid for the vehicle. My fiance did the actual driving and both he and I were listed as alternate drivers. There was no inspection performed when we rented the car. My fiance and I returned the car at 6:30 in the morning to a drop box as no one was at the desk. My mom had a flight 12 hours later and completed the check-in of the vehicle. At that time there was no mention of any vehicle damage and we were not aware of any damage.
A week after we were back home in Washington we received notice that there was damage to the car and we were responsibe. They said they inspected the car when it was returned and that no damage was reported by customer.
We did not see the damage when we returned the car and my mom was not told of any 12 hours later when her flight left. Our insurance companies are telling us differing stories. We don't feel we should have to pay for rental agency's negligence regarding proper inspection.
Any thoughts would be great.
Thank you.
