In addition, if the renter does not request an extension of the lease and does not return the vehicle within the period specified in the contract, Rent a Car Montino reserves the right to take the necessary legal action to recover the vehicle as soon as possible and will retain the total amount of the deposit as a penalty for non-compliance.

In the event that the vehicle needs to be moved by a tow truck, the lessee must request this from the lessor and cover the cost of the move if the vehicle was damaged or involved in collisions during the rental.

Without prejudice to the lessee's liability to third parties, if any of the prohibitions established in the previous points are incurred, the lessor may terminate the contract immediately and claim compensation for damages, including loss of profits caused by such non-compliance.

Tenant's Responsibility

The lessee receives the vehicle in a good state of maintenance and preservation, with all its equipment and the details previously informed before delivery. The client agrees to return the vehicle in the same condition, together with all its accessories, parts and pieces.

The lessee is liable to the lessor for any damage or theft of the vehicle, as well as for any damage resulting from breaches of contract, except for the limitations of liability that the lessee agrees to. This also applies to the legal provisions in force in matters not regulated in these clauses. The lessee will also be liable for any infringement that he may commit during the rental,

especially for traffic violations. Likewise, the renter exonerates Rent a Car Montino from any penalty, fine, fee, surcharge and, in general, from any type of cost imposed for this concept.

Landlord's Responsibility

Montino Rent a Car is not responsible for the theft of objects that are stored inside the vehicle while it is being rented.

Furthermore, the lessor will not assume responsibility for the loss or damage of said objects as a result of an accident.

In the event of a vehicle accident, this does not automatically imply the lessor's obligation to provide a replacement vehicle. If a replacement vehicle is delivered, this will be subject to availability at that time. The delivery of a replacement vehicle will be considered a new lease, which entails the signing of a new contract, the delivery of a new guarantee and the respective payment.

Tenant Charges or Costs

The lessee shall be liable for all damages caused to the vehicle or its accessories, whether by himself or by a third party. This includes damages resulting from traffic accidents, whether to persons or property.

The insurance will only cover damages in accordance with the current policy contracted by the lessor (total loss). Any damage or accident that exceeds the amount indicated in the policy or that is not covered by the insurance company will be the responsibility of the lessee.

In addition, the lessee will assume the costs of damages caused to third parties, to their persons, vehicles or property, whether moral or material, as a result of the use of the vehicle.

The costs of transporting the vehicle to the address of Rent a Car Montino (Pasaje Santa Eliana S/N, El Verdín, Coyhaique, Aysén Region, Chile) from the place where it was left by the renter, including situations of traffic accidents, will also be the responsibility of the renter.

In the event of any of these events, the tenant must immediately inform the landlord in writing or by phone, WhatsApp, text message or other effective means that proves notification. In addition, the tenant must notify the competent authorities, if applicable, within a period of no more than 24 hours from the incident. This will allow the insurance policy to be activated, if the landlord considers it appropriate to do so (although it is not obliged to do so).

The tenant must refrain from making statements that in any way compromise the landlord. If this point is violated, the liability and cost of all damages will be borne by the tenant.

In the event of an accident, theft or robbery of the vehicle, the respective accident affidavit must be completed and/or a complaint filed with the Carabineros of Chile, as appropriate.

If there are no injured third parties, the renter must make a simple sworn statement at Rent a Car Montino or send an email to contacto@rentacarmontino.cl, detailing the circumstances of the accident within a period not exceeding 24 hours from the events. Failure to comply with this obligation will result in immediate collection of the entire amount of the guaranteed guarantee, without the right to make a subsequent claim.

The renter will be responsible for damage to the vehicle caused directly by the driver's fault and/or failure to comply with the manufacturer's recommendations.

Regardless of the magnitude, nature and/or cause of the damage caused to the vehicle, the lessee must pay an amount of 20 UF (Chilean Development Units) as compensation and costs for stopping the vehicle, an amount that may be deducted from the guaranteed guarantee.

The rental charges for the vehicle are those indicated in the respective booking confirmation, unless a discount or special price has been agreed. The prices established by Rent a Car Montino are flexible and may vary without prior notice, without affecting the values of already confirmed reservations.

Use of the Vehicle

The lessor delivers the vehicle detailed in the rental contract in proper working order, together with the complete documentation, key and accessories. It is the lessee's obligation to carry out a visual inspection of the condition of the vehicle and its accessories; failure to do so will be the lessee's sole responsibility.

The lessee undertakes to use the vehicle and its accessories diligently and to return them in the same condition in which they were delivered. He must also allow the relevant safety inspections to be carried out and drive the vehicle in compliance with current traffic regulations.

The lessee receives the vehicle with a full tank of fuel and is obliged to return it in the same condition. Otherwise, $15,000 plus VAT will be charged for each 1/4 of the tank missing, a charge that will be deducted from the guarantee left by the client.

The type of fuel required is indicated on the rented vehicle. If the wrong fuel is loaded into the vehicle by mistake, the costs of repairing any damage caused will be the responsibility of the renter.
