It seems in general that landlords and tenants have a very contemptuous relationship.
Here’s the thing though: when you rent a car and the rental company asks you to inspect the car and note any damage do you pull out a magnifying glass?
I doubt it.
What your looking for is significant damage – not every little defect.
You and the rental company both know the car isn’t brand new….[/quote]
Rental car. Yes.Definitely…
I borrowed a 328 loaner from BMW dealer when I dropped my car for service. I went through it with a fine tooth cone. When I got home, I parked on a driveway and noticed the the previous borrower royally suck at parallel parking because he/she completely scraped the lower skirt on the passenger side below the door. That very moment I took it back to the dealer, and explained to them what happened. They kinda didn’t believe me, and had to ask a few technicians if they’ve seen this before. Fortunately, one of the techs said “it looks familiar” and he checked his service records that confirmed it… Had it not been for that, I would have been screwed.
