Question 1

Should I purchase extra insurance when hiring a Dollar car in Los Angeles, United States?

Accepted Answer

Every rental company requires valid insurance for financial security. Without it, Dollar may refuse your rental. Exceptions where insurance may not be necessary include: Existing coverage that applies to international rentals and matches your chosen car type/class. Additional insurance from your credit card provider that covers rentals abroad. If you don't meet these criteria, purchasing some form of protection is essential. You can secure your deposit by purchasing Excess Fee Insurance during booking on our website, or opt for Full Coverage Insurance or Excess Reduction at the Dollar rental counter.

Question 2

Is it allowed for another person to drive my rental car?

Accepted Answer

To ensure insurance coverage, all additional drivers must be listed on your rental agreement. If someone drives the rental car without being added as an extra driver, the rental agreement will be voided, and the insurance company may not cover any damages to the vehicle.

Question 3

Can a foreigner hire a car in Los Angeles?

Accepted Answer

In some countries, an International Driving Permit (IDP) may also be required for foreigners.

Question 7

What happens if you damage a rental car from Dollar in Los Angeles?

Accepted Answer

In case of damage to your Dollar rental car in Los Angeles, the Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) will provide coverage. Ensure your insurance has zero excess. If your CDW includes an excess limit, you'll be responsible for part of the repair costs. Typically, you won't need to pay this separately, as the amount will be deducted from your deposit made when hiring a Dollar car in Los Angeles, United States.

Question 8

Do I need to return the vehicle with a full tank of gas?

Accepted Answer

The Dollar fuel policy you select in Los Angeles will determine your fueling responsibilities. With a full-to-full or same-to-same option, you need to return the car with the same amount of fuel it had at pickup. If not, you'll be charged for the missing fuel at a rate higher than the local gas stations. Alternatively, you can choose to prepay for a full tank. This means you won't need to refuel the car before returning it. However, the cost will be higher overall since you'll be charged the local gas price minus a per-gallon discount, leading to an increased total cost.
