Hertz bug leads to people being erroneously arrested and jailed
The majority of the cases claim Hertz reported vehicles stolen to the police when they were actually being legitimately rented by customers, causing major issues for the renters and anyone unlucky enough to be riding with them. According to ABC Action News, these affected customers ended up in handcuffs and in the back of a police car in the majority of the cases. Francis Alexander, an attorney who is representing some of the falsely-accused renters, says that Hertz’s computer system has a “glitch” that has led to the company-wide pattern of reporting cars stolen.
