It's basically a scam - they hire Pureco to go after you and collect on "damage" you may or may not have put on the car. They never actually make the repairs unless it's a serious smashup so they can try to nail multiple renters for the same damage.

My Amex insurance rep told me about it and went to war with the location and Pureco, but ended up paying because Pureco just said they would screw me over.
Interesting reading this. I had a similiar experience on Friday when i dropped off the shitbox Malibu (about all this location has) they gave me (even though I'd reserved an SUV and am an Exec Elite). Guy actually got on the ground in front of the car to look at front bumper. I laughed at first, he wasn't fond of that gave me quite a glare as my receipt was printing.

As for the employees? Far and away worst I've found at any National agency I've been to across the country.

Watch yourself at this location. I've made my corp travel agents aware of this in hopes to avoid them during any future visits to SLC.
