The vehicles sold at Hertz Car Sales locations come from different sources. The majority of vehicles are late models which have been carefully selected from either the rental fleet of the Hertz Corporations ("Hertz") or other Hertz companies, such as: Dollar Rent-a-Car, Thrifty Rental, Donlen, or Hertz Equipment Rental Corporation. Some of the vehicles have been traded-in by Hertz Car Sales customers; others have been purchased from a variety of sources, such as dealers, private sellers, and auctions. While Hertz works hard to procure quality vehicles, Hertz may not be aware of the vehicle's full history. Nonetheless, only the vehicles that meet Hertz quality standards make it to the Hertz Car Sales inventory.

To check the recall status of a specific vehicle, go to https://www.nhtsa.gov/recalls and enter the vehicle's Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

A safety recall occurs when a manufacturer or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) finds that a defect that could affect the safety or operation of a vehicle may exist in a specific vehicle or series of vehicles. The manufacturer notifies its authorized dealers, repair facilities, and the registered vehicle owners of the condition or defect so that the registered owners can take the vehicle to the authorized dealer or repair facility for diagnosis and repair.

With Rent2Buy, Hertz has focused on making the used car buying experience simpler. We have eliminated the middleman, so you are protected from the haggle process. By reducing these costs, Rent2Buy has been able to transfer savings to the customer and offer high-quality, well-equipped used cars at great prices; often well under Kelley's Blue Book Suggested Retail Value. Furthermore, Hertz believes that peace of mind should come at no extra cost. That's why every car sold through Rent2Buy to retail customers is backed with a 12-month/12,000-mile limited powertrain warranty, and a 7-day or 250-mile Buy Back Guarantee.

Hertz Rent2Buy^® streamlined the buying process and took the hassle out of buying a used car, plus added peace of mind to the formula.

Since these are active rental vehicles, unfortunately we cannot guarantee the car will be available for you to check prior to making a reservation. Placing a reservation ensures that the car will be pulled from the fleet, prepared and made available for you. The reservation is an appointment you set to check the vehicle you are interested in. Upon arrival at the location please proceed to the counter and identify yourself as a Rent2Buy customer. The Counter Service Representative will walk you to your vehicle. Please check out the car before you sign the rental agreement. If the vehicle does not meet your expectations, there is no need to open the rental agreement.

Hertz Rent2Buy^® is not a "Rent to Own" program. Hertz Rent2Buy^® provides customers with the opportunity to feel the ownership of the car through a 3-day test rental. This test period will help our customers make the best decision towards purchasing the car, unlike traditional used car sales.

MasterCard, Carte Blanche, Diners Club, Discover, JCB, Visa, Optima, Amex, China Union Pay Acceptable form of payment via the internet is limited to major credit cards (Debit cards and Hertz Credit Cards are not accepted) or credit card information contained in the Hertz Gold Plus Rewards profile.

At many Hertz locations, debit cards issued under a VISA or MasterCard logo which draw funds directly from the cardholder's account may be used to qualify for rental. However, there are exceptions to this general policy as debit cards are not accepted at the outset of a rental to qualify for non-Hertz Plus Gold Rewards member rentals in the New York Metropolitan Tri-State Area and the areas of Hartford, CT, Philadelphia, PA, Boston, MA and Detroit, MI. Also, debit cards are not accepted to qualify for non-Hertz Plus Gold Rewards member rentals to customers under 25 years of age at Hertz Off-Airport locations. However, prepaid or stored value cards which have a VISA or MasterCard logo are not accepted to qualify for rental. When a debit card is accepted as form of payment, at the start of the rental, two (2) forms of identification must be presented. Debit Cards must have available funds for the estimated amount of the rental charges and any additional charges that may be incurred. Both debit cards and prepaid or stored value cards issued under a VISA or MasterCard logo may be used as a form of payment when you return the vehicle.

The credit scoring process performed through the services of Equifax are very similar to the type of credit checks that are done when a person applies for credit. This credit check is done at the rental location when you arrive.

On most test rentals, the minimum age is 25 without an additional Age Differential Charge, and 21 with an additional Age Differential Charge.

Hertz will test rent selected car class vehicles (Prestige Collection and high-performance cars such as Corvettes and Shelby Mustangs excluded) to customers who are age 21-24 with an Age Differential Charge, in addition to the normal rental rate.

Most car classes will require a $15 per day surcharge, while higher end cars may require a $25 per day surcharge. See the counter representative for details

Various corporate accounts have agreements with Hertz which permit employees of those companies, between the ages of 21-24, to rent for business purposes. Hertz Rent2Buy® will honor these age exceptions if you test rent a vehicle. Renters must present a valid Corporate Identification Card at the time of test rental and additional fees may apply. Please contact your company travel department to verify age exceptions when test renting a vehicle.
