New Zealand Consumer Law (ACL) — Your Rights

Under the ACL, consumers are entitled to guarantees for goods and services that are provided by businesses in New Zealand. For car hire this commonly includes that vehicles are of acceptable quality, fit for purpose and match the description at booking.

  • Refund, repair or replacement when a major problem occurs.
  • Access to remedies for defective services or misleading conduct.
  • Protection from unfair contract terms for standard form consumer contracts.
How we comply

We assess vehicle condition before hire, disclose material fees, and provide clear procedures for reporting faults within 48 hours of pick-up.

External advice

For ACL issues you can contact the ACCC (www.accc.gov.au) or your state fair trading agency.

Pricing, Fees & Cancellations

We publish base rates online and disclose common fees at booking. Additional charges may apply for extras, out-of-hours returns, one-way hires and damage fees.

Refunds depend on the rate type. Flexible bookings qualify for partial/full refunds per booking terms. Non-refundable rates are charged per confirmation. ACL remedies still apply where applicable.

Our standard hire includes third-party liability where required by law. Optional collision damage waivers (CDW) reduce excess. Insurance details and excess amounts are specified during booking.

Prices shown include GST where applicable. Airport or concession surcharges are applied when required and will be displayed at booking.

Liability, Damage and Accident Procedures

Drivers are responsible for the vehicle during the hire period. Report accidents and damage immediately to our emergency contact and local authorities where applicable.

Damage reporting

Photograph damage, exchange details, and call our support line. We will advise next steps and any hold on payment methods for excess.

Third-party claims

We cooperate with insurers and regulators. For disputes about liability you may seek independent advice or contact ACCC/state fair trading offices.

Personal Data, Privacy & Records

We collect personal information to provide bookings and comply with legal obligations. Our Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it and retention periods.

For access, correction or requests under New Zealand privacy laws contact us or see Privacy.
