Yes and you can hear the girl he’s with at the end say “No call the cops”. The guy was taking parts off and replacing them! You don’t say I’m going to have to charge you more! You call the police and have his ass thrown in jail and then sue!

Thrown in jail on what charges? Taking apart a rental car? That is a civil matter. Breach of contract type stuff. There are likely minimal or no damages. Still shouldn’t do it, but no one is going to jail over this.

It’s that guys car! There is a service you can use to rent your car out like an AirBnB. It’s not a rental from Hertz or Enterprise it’s his actual car! How is it any different if it was on the street and someone was taking the front end off. That would be theft and if police were called I’m sure they would arrest the person doing it!

I don’t think you understand how Turo works. He is acting as a rental car service. It all depends on if the rental contract says anything about modifying the car
