Avis Says Customer Drove 95,000 Miles In A Week — Then Charged $6,288 On An Unlimited-Mileage Rental

Avis customer Michael D’Amico incurred a substantial charge of $6,288 following a seven-day rental agreement. He initially paid $199.64 for a full-size vehicle with an advertised unlimited mileage option. After returning the car, Avis asserted the vehicle had accumulated approximately 95,000 miles during his stay. This calculation presents a significant discrepancy given the stated terms of the rental contract. Avis has previously been associated with similar mileage billing issues, prompting customers to understand their rights and potential recourse.
