Addenda to the Rental Agreement

 

Airport Delivery and Access

​

This Acknowledgment defines the terms, limitations, and renter responsibilities related to airport-area vehicle access, delivery, and retrieval at or near Denver International Airport (DEN). Due to restrictions from the City and County of Denver regarding the use of airport facilities, the Company is not permitted to deliver vehicles in person or directly to you at Denver International Airport facilities, including terminal passenger pick up or drop off areas. 

 

To minimize your inconvenience, the company contracts with a third-party resource that shuttles you to an adjacent off-site parking area at no cost to the renter.  Renter acknowledges that the Company’s vehicles are stored, delivered, and accessed through third-party facilities, including Park My Share and The Parking Spot South. The renter agrees to return the vehicle to the third-party location after the rental period. The Company is responsible for parking charges when the renter uses the proper incoming and outgoing lanes that are clearly marked for “Turo/Park My Share” preauthorized vehicles. If the vehicle is not returned to the originating location, the Renter is responsible for all costs associated with retrieving the vehicle. Cost may include, but not limited to, fees, fines, and/or recovery charges accrued by the company or a third-party contractor. The shuttle service will return you to the appropriate terminal upon your departure.

​

It is understood that:

• Airport-area access is provided as a convenience only. The Company does not offer or guarantee immediate vehicle availability at terminal curbside, meet-and-greet service, or specific shuttle wait times

• Shuttle transportation is the primary means to access the vehicle and to return to the airport at the conclusion of your rental period. Access to the vehicle is provided to the renter at no charge and arranged through The Parking Spot South. Shuttle wait times vary and are outside the Company’s control. Shuttle delays or facility congestion do not qualify for refunds, credits, or late fees. Therefore, you must allow sufficient time for shuttle transport when returning the vehicle

• Additional travel time should be planned for pickup and return. Traffic, weather, or facility delays may occur.

• Missed flights or connections are not the Company’s responsibility, and no refunds or credits will be issued due to missed or delayed flights. Flight departure times do not excuse late returns or associated fees.

• The Company is not responsible for resulting delays or costs if access instructions cannot be followed due to renter error, delays, or non-compliance.

 

 

 

 

Winter and Mountain Driving

​

Colorado winter and mountain driving pose unique risks, including snow, ice, steep grades, high winds, avalanches, road closures, and rapidly changing weather. As the renter and driver during the rental period, along with any approved drivers, you voluntarily assume all risks associated with winter and mountain driving. Additionally, you understand that:

• Mountain and winter driving is inherently hazardous

• Road conditions may change rapidly without warning

• It is not uncommon for Interstate 70 and mountain passes to close due to weather or accidents

​

The Company does not control weather, road maintenance, or traffic conditions that cause delays, closures, or reroutes that are common during winter months and may incur unforeseen consequences in completing your travel plans.

• Alternative routes may be required and may increase travel time

• Travel delays or cancellations do not entitle the renter to refunds

• 4x4 or AWD capability does not guarantee safety or traction.

• Winter tires improve traction but do not eliminate risk

• Driver skill and judgment are critical to safe operation. The presence of 4x4, AWD, or winter equipment does not reduce your responsibility.

 

Chain Laws, Traction Control, and Legal Responsibilities

• Colorado traction laws are in effect from September 1st through May 31st. Company vehicles are equipped to properly meet or exceed Colorado requirements. Renters need to familiarize themselves with Colorado laws and requirements and comply with law enforcement in assessing the use of Company vehicles during the designated time frame. You are required to monitor current road conditions and closures. In the unforeseen event that law enforcement determines additional traction control is required beyond the use of All Wheel Drive, four-wheel drive, and adequate tires, you must obtain, carry, and properly install chains. Failure to comply may result in fines, towing, damage, or accidents for which you will be held liable.

• Road Closures and Trip Interruptions

• Renter acknowledges that road closures and trip interruptions are common from September 1st through May 31st. Adjusting travel during road closures does not waive any additional

expenses, and the Company is not liable for any costs arising from unforeseen delays, road closures, or other events that may alter the renter’s travel plans.

 

 

• Prohibited Conduct in Winter Conditions The following are strictly prohibited:

• Driving during declared road closures

• Attempting travel in unsafe or restricted conditions

• Disabling traction control or safety systems

• Off-road or unmaintained road travel

• Violation may void insurance coverage and result in full financial liability.

 

The Company does not guarantee: access to any destination, road passability, or the ability to reach ski resorts or mountain towns. Travel decisions remain the sole responsibility of the renter.
