(LegalLaw247.com, March 07, 2012 ) New York, NY ClassAction.org would like to hear from consumers in Illinois, New York, California and Pennsylvania who got into an accident while driving a rental car and had to pay for both the costs of repair and diminishment in value. It has been alleged that the laws in these states only require consumers to pay for one of these damages, whichever is less, when they bring a damaged vehicle back to the rental car company. If rental car companies are violating these laws, customers who paid for both charges may have legal recourse to seek financial compensation.

Allegedly, laws in Illinois, New York, California and Pennsylvania have found that the proper measure of a personal property claim are the costs of repair or diminished value, whichever is less. It is believed, however, that some rental car companies are violating these laws by levying both charges against consumers who accidentally damage their rental vehicles. A class action complaint has already been filed against Enterprise Rent-a-Car by a Pennsylvania man who had to pay $153.11 for diminished value and $1,531.10 for repair costs after damaging a rented 2011 Chevrolet Impala.
Car rental customers in Illinois, New York, California and Pennsylvania who had to pay for both costs of repair and diminished value may have legal recourse. Potentially, these customers may be able to seek compensation for damages through a class action lawsuit.
