Motor Vehicle Rental Charges Disclosures

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

Senate Bill 18-100, also known as the Motor Vehicle Rental Charges Disclosures bill, requires car rental companies to clearly inform customers about any additional mandatory charges before they rent a vehicle. These extra costs must be included in both the initial quote and the rental agreement. If a company fails to disclose these charges, it can be considered deceptive business practice. The bill has been signed into law, meaning car renters in Colorado now have legal protection against hidden fees.
