Concerning disclosure of additional mandatory charges by motor vehicle rental companies.
Bill Summary:
Consumer protection - auto rental contracts - required disclosure of total charges for rental including additional mandatory charges - penalty. The act requires motor vehicle rental companies to disclose to potential customers a good-faith estimate of the total charges for the motor vehicle rental, including all additional mandatory charges. Additional mandatory charges include a customer facility charge, airport concession recovery fee, road safety fee, vehicle recovery license fee, or government-imposed tax or fee.
