Oh maybe they’d call the police to do it?

I’m wondering how they got the cars out. Generally you have to go through a booth that will check credentials and then allow you out, with spikes or some other fairly impenetrable barrier. Never flew through Syracuse though so not family with their terminal and rental car buildings.  

Had to think about it, but I just now got it.

So Johnston and many other Hertz customers who had reservations just found Hertz cars with keys in them and drove away.

*ba-dum-pish*

They arrested you for stealing from the gutter?  Because their own videos would have shown you just picking stuff up off the ground.

Well that didn’t work right, but this is my second favorite rental car scene.

With the way Hertz have been lately, I wouldn’t risk it lol

Strange, rental car people are usually so cheery.

No such thing I found out the hard way, walking down a road towards town one day, found a couple hundred dollars in bills laying along a half mile stretch of road. I was so happy because at the time I was broke and since there was nothing around for miles except this old warehouse that went out of business I figured…

I would love to know the backstory. This sounds like some kind of collective employment suicide pact. How horrible must it have been to work there?

How many people did this?

Upheld, I believe, with the “Neener neener” case.

From what I hear about Hertz, two years from now, Johnnie Law will show up on their front porch with a warrant for car theft.

“So Johnston and many other Hertz customers who had reservations just found Hertz cars with keys in them and drove away.”

A week after the incident, airport officials reached out to Hertz, basically saying “Hey, you know you guys have to do business here, right?” Hertz responded as if it was talking to a customer, saying that the company had “sincere apologies for the level of service that we have provided.”

Sounds about white.

See the court case Finders v Keepers.

By the time I got there even their breakroom was ransacked, so I didn’t even get a Hertz donut.

“...resulting in customers (including the mayor of Denver) taking the keys to whatever rental cars they wanted.”
