Hertz caused many of its customers to be wrongfully arrested after it reported the vehicles they were renting were stolen, in 2020. Hertz has now reached a settlement in 364 lawsuits related to vehicle theft where they will pay approximately $168 million.

Hertz had claimed that these false theft reports were the result of its struggles with filing for bankruptcy. However, reports for falsely stolen vehicles continued even after the company surfaced out from bankruptcy in 2021.
