A “longtime” Hertz customer says he is “done” with the car rental company after he claimed that the AI-powered damage detection system improperly flagged a nonexistent mark on the vehicle — even though video that he filmed immediately afterward appeared to back up his claim.

When angry customers sought to dispute the claim, they were unable to immediately reach a customer service rep.

“The link they send you does NOT allow you to submit a dispute. Calling customer support? Useless. They said they can’t do anything, even when I told them I have clear video evidence of the car being undamaged at the exact time the damage was claimed,” one customer said.

    These companies are all scams. Expedia advertised cancellations and not needing a credit card. When we tried to get the car we rented from the rental company they said we needed a credit card. Expedia refused to let us cancel or give a refund or even give us that amount in store credit.

    Don’t use Expedia. Horrible service. Even if you wanna blame this on me for whatever reason, the fact that they refused to give us store credit for the money we already gave them (not even a refund) shows they won’t care about your problems either.
