I rented in California and drove 2,007 miles on a roundtrip to Arizona.
3 months later I got hit with an additional charge of $1003.50 for mileage even though my reservation stated "Unlimited Mileage".
It turns out they use GPS tracking.
In California they need your permission to track you. They must also print mileage restrictions in bold 12 point text, notify you verbally and have you initial the text.
I got my local DA involved who wrote to the franchise. Franchise agreed to a refund so long as I removed my bad Yelp review.
