Know before you go

Be sure you check a few items prior to leaving the car rental lot. You should:

• Inspect your vehicle and make sure there is no damage or scrapes. If so, write it down on the paperwork
• Check the trunk to determine if the spare is inflated and both the lug wrench and jack are there
• Get familiar with the controls of your car. Adjust the mirrors and seats, and note how to turn on the lights and windshield wipers
