Basically, OP is in the position of retaining someone in Argentina to research and fight what might be a valid ticket and, if it's not, getting the penalty reimbursed to Hertz so that Hertz will issue a credit to OP.
Bottom line is that unless you are rich and have a lot of time, this is the end of the road (literally).
And if it does get reimbursed, OP would still be out some money as AR$ has devalued.
