towing if a Vehicle breaks down or otherwise becomes inoperable due to a preexisting condition or problem with the Vehicle. If a Renter requests roadside
assistance for issues Carhood determines said Renter has caused (for example, a
flat tire or flat battery), the roadside assistance and towing charges will be the sole
responsibility of the Renter.
20. Driving Safety:
a. If you believe that a Vehicle is unsafe to drive due to an "easily" correctable problem
(as determined solely by Carhood), for example, a flat tyre, Carhood will work with
you to remedy this issue quickly. If you remain uncomfortable with the Vehicle after a
fix is performed by a certified, licensed mechanic, you may return the Vehicle to the
original pickup location to exchange vehicles, based on availability. Carhood,
however, is under no obligation to provide you with a different vehicle and under no
circumstances will Carhood have an alternate vehicle bought to you.
21. Repairs & Maintenance:
a. Although the Renter is not responsible for routine maintenance and repairs of the
Vehicle, they are responsible for reporting to Carhood immediately any serious
issues, including a warning light or system error message, as soon as they occur.
Renters should discontinue driving immediately if they notice a serious issue and
contact Carhood who will arrange an alternate vehicle for the Renter.
b. The Renter may be held liable for the repair cost for all other repairs of damage to the

Waiver, and must follow the reporting, claims processing, and repair procedure set
out in these Terms and Requirements for all such damage.

the Vehicle.
25. Hands-Free:
a. Renters must not operate devices that require one or both hands while driving,

that is not in a cradle or fixed to the Vehicle is an offence. You must follow any
applicable local laws and regulations relating to mobile phone use.
26. Seat Belts:
a. The driver and all passengers must wear a seat belt at all times and Renters must
also comply with all child restraint laws for children under the age of 7 years. Where
requested in advance, Carhood will provide an approved child seat in the rental
vehicle. Although Carhood staff will fit the approved child seat in the vehicle
according to manufactures instructions, it is the sole responsibility of the Renter to
ensure the seat is fitted properly. Carhood will take all reasonable care when
installing the seat but accept no liability in the event of injury or death of an occupant
due to any event.
27. Headphones:
a. Renters must not drive while wearing any device that limits the Renter's ability to
hear, see, and otherwise judge driving conditions. Renters must follow all applicable
laws governing headphone use in Vehicles, which may differ state by state

geographical location of the Vehicle to be tracked or located. By hiring the Vehicle,
Renters expressly consent to Carhood using tracking devices on the Vehicle during
the period of rental and the collection, use and retention of information from the
tracking devices. Further information is available in Carhood's Privacy Policy.
-9-
29. Damage:
a. Carhood does not review the condition of the Vehicle when it is returned from a
rental, as this is not a service that Carhood provides. The Vehicle's owner will review
the condition of the Vehicle when they return from their trip. If they discover any new
damage, Carhood will search through its records to determine at what point it
occurred. For this reason, Carhood may notify you of damage and charge you for any
damage caused to the Vehicle up to 6 months after your rental.
30. Rental Start:
a. The Renter must contact Carhood when they arrive at their destination airport or
other location by phone or smartphone application or by other method specified in
their Rental Confirmation. Carhood will inform them of their available transportation
options to get to the Carhood facility where they can pick up their Vehicle.
31. Extensions:
a. A Renter may call Carhood to see if a vehicle is available for an extended time
period. If the Renter wishes to extend the rental and it is available, they will be
assessed any additional charges for the new rental days based on current market
pricing, with a minimum of one extra day worth of charges. Your original price is not
the prevailing price if you wish to extend. The prevailing price is always the currently
listed price on the Site. If an extension is not available, the Vehicle must be returned
at the original return time.
32. Cancellation:
a. Cancelling rentals at least 24 hours before scheduled pickup can be done without
any penalty unless otherwise specified. After this time, rentals are refundable
excluding one days rental charge.
b. Changes to a rental length or time period can be made any time until the scheduled
pick up time with no fee except any price difference as calculated by current prices at
the time of the change (no refund will be issued for difference in price if the rental is
changed with 24 hours of rental start).
c. After the scheduled pickup time, changes are no longer permitted and if the Vehicle
is not picked up, the value of the booking (maximum 3 days) is lost. For bookings
greater than 3 days a refund of the remaining days will be issued. Refunds are
calculated by the total amount paid divided by the number of rental days.
33. Returns:
a. Renters are ultimately responsible for returning a Vehicle to the Carhood facility they
collected the Vehicle from and will be charged significant fees associated with the
transportation cost, administration and handling if you do not comply. These charges
often exceed $1,000. Once you return the Vehicle, you will then be dropped off at a
nearby airport or other transportation hub of your choosing following a post-rental
vehicle inspection.
- 10 -
34. Late Returns & Failure to return:
a. Returning a Vehicle late will result in a fee of $20 per hour for the first two hours and
$40 per hour for each subsequent hour, up to a maximum $200 per day. Renters
must make every effort to inform Carhood immediately when they know they will be
late returning their Vehicle. If a Renter does not return a Vehicle within 48 hours of
the conclusion of the scheduled rental period or Carhood has any reason to suspect
you do not intend to return the Vehicle, you will not return the Vehicle within a
reasonable amount of time, or have intent to defraud Carhood, Carhood will report
the Vehicle as stolen to the police. You release Carhood from all liability resulting
from doing so.
35. One Way Rentals:
a. One-way rentals (picking up at one location and returning at another) are not
permitted.
36. No Shows:
a. A No Show is defined as failing to arrive within two hours of your scheduled pickup
time, or, if you have provided us with valid flight information (air carrier and flight
number), failing to arrive within one hour of the at-gate arrival of that flight. A "No
Show" will result in your reservation being cancelled and does not entitle you to a
refund. If you wish to rebook, there is no guarantee that your originally quoted rate
will be available.
37. Locked Compartments and Auxiliary Equipment:
a. You are not permitted to open any locked individual compartments in an Owner's
Vehicle, including the glove box.
b. Auxiliary Equipment: Vehicles are often equipped with auxiliary equipment such as a
tow hitch, bike, ski, luggage, or kayak rack or stand, or other accessories. Renters
are not entitled to a discount or price refund due to the presence of this equipment,
nor may they remove or request removal of such equipment.
38. Responsibility:
a. Carhood, its subsidiaries, subcontractors, and operating units (Companies) are not
responsible for consequential damages or indirect loss should any of the Companies
fail to meet their obligations in connection with a rental transaction. Similarly, you are
not responsible for consequential damages or indirect loss should you fail to meet
your obligations in connection with the transaction.
39. Impounding of Vehicles:
If a Vehicle is impounded during your rental, you will be fully responsible for any towing
and storage fees and the fee for the release of the Vehicle from the compound that arise
as a result of the impounding, unless the impound was caused by an issue completely
outside of your control (such as the registration being expired). It will be your
responsibility to assist Carhood and/or the owner to retrieve the Vehicle, or to do it
yourself, if it is possible. If Carhood has to arrange for the release of a vehicle from
impound a $150 administration fee will be applied.
- 11 -
