Terms and Condition

SATO RENT A CAR — Additional Rental Agreement Clauses

Failure To Return / Vehicle Conversion Clause

Failure to return the vehicle at the agreed return time without written authorization from Sato Rent A Car may

constitute unauthorized possession, vehicle conversion, or theft. Sato Rent A Car reserves the right to immediately

initiate recovery procedures, repossession efforts, law enforcement notification, GPS tracking procedures, and any

legal remedies available under applicable law. Guest agrees that continued possession of the vehicle beyond the

authorized rental period without written approval immediately terminates authorization to possess or operate the

vehicle.

Recovery, Repossession & Interstate Recovery Costs

Guest agrees to fully cooperate with all vehicle recovery efforts. Guest remains financially responsible for all costs

associated with vehicle recovery including repossession fees, towing charges, transport costs, storage fees, recovery

vendor fees, administrative costs, attorney fees, law enforcement coordination expenses, and any related operational

losses. This includes interstate recovery situations involving travel outside the authorized operating area.

Written Extension Requirement

Rental extensions are only valid if approved in writing by Sato Rent A Car prior to the original return deadline. Verbal

statements, unanswered messages, pending payments, or assumptions do not constitute authorization to extend the

rental period.

Loss Of Use & Diminished Value Clause

Guest remains financially responsible for vehicle downtime, loss of rental income, diminished vehicle value,

administrative processing, towing, storage, transportation, repair-related losses, and any operational interruption

caused by damage, misuse, accident, negligence, or unauthorized use. Loss of use charges may continue until the

vehicle is fully repaired, recovered, or returned to rentable condition.

Insurance Responsibility Clause

Guest must maintain valid primary automobile insurance covering liability, property damage, and

collision/comprehensive losses where applicable. Guest remains fully financially responsible for denied insurance

claims, uninsured losses, deductible amounts, excluded drivers, unauthorized use, negligence, policy violations, or

damages not covered by insurance. Use of unauthorized drivers or prohibited vehicle use may void all protections and

result in full financial responsibility by the Guest.

Expanded GPS & Telematics Disclosure

Guest acknowledges and consents that vehicles may contain GPS tracking systems, telematics devices, mileage

monitoring, geofencing technology, theft recovery systems, starter interrupt technology where legally permitted, and

other vehicle monitoring systems used for operational safety, fraud prevention, vehicle recovery, and contract

compliance. Guests have no expectation of privacy regarding vehicle location, operational status, or telematics data

during the rental period.

Immediate Vehicle Recovery Authorization

Sato Rent A Car reserves the right to recover, repossess, disable, or secure the vehicle without prior notice if the

rental agreement is violated, payment becomes invalid, fraud is suspected, GPS systems are tampered with, the

vehicle becomes overdue, unauthorized drivers operate the vehicle, or illegal/prohibited use is suspected.

Administrative & Chargeback Recovery Clause

Guest remains responsible for all costs related to payment disputes, chargebacks, administrative processing,

collections, legal filings, investigation costs, fraud prevention measures, and related recovery expenses resulting from

violations of the rental agreement
