| Common myths about renting your car… debunked |
Peer to peer car rental is an innovative commercial transaction. As all other innovative transactions, it faces misunderstanding from many people. Here are some common fears about P2P car rentals, and what is true in them:
-
Renters are reckless, the chances of accidents are high : Not true. There is definitely risks of accident, but they are probably no larger than you driving your own vehicle. All renters will be verified by Spagg's Secure Platform, and as humans they will be also trying their best not to get involved in any accident. Renters are often new to the city, so they end up taking double as much care when driving your car for rental. In case the misfortunate accident happens, you will be covered by the renter's insurance policies (all Spagg Network rentals are covered for property and third party liability).
-
Renter may "trash" my car : It depends on what you consider trashing. Trashing rental cars is actually not common in the US, but the large majority of the cases happening involve smoking or having pets inside the car without proper authorization. In case that this unlikely event happens to your car, we will charge a "deep cleaning" fee to the renter and transfer the money to you so that you can have your car shining as new. The rental fees will by large more than cover normal wear and tear that will happen as your vehicle gets miles. But "trashing" mechanical parts on a vehicle is actually really difficult, even if you try it hard. Modern cars have brakes, engine and transmission designed to support well driving conditions in American roads. And if anything happens, you are again covered by the renter's insurance policies.
-
The renter may run away with my car : This one is funny and not supported by real facts. Car robbery in the US is a common and easy criminal practice ... but too easy for any criminal to bother using the Spagg Network for that. If someone wants to steal your car, they will just grab it anytime at a parking lot or on the street. The Spagg Secure Platform verifies identities. The last thing a criminal will do to get your car is to submit information to a secure platform and give us their names, credit card information matching their home address in secure databases and show you their faces at the moment of pick-up. Even identity theft is unlikely: who wants to spend time creating an elaborate ID theft scheme that may or may not trump our system, and then show up for an appointment with us? This makes using the Spagg Network to get away with your car very unlikely (but it's a great idea for a Hollywood movie! :) ).
-
The renter may refuse to pay : Not possible. Before we even schedule your rental meeting, the Spagg Network will have pre-authorized the renter's payment through financial system, covering for the total rental costs plus a hefty margin for incidentals that may happen.
