Dalaman DLM Car Hire offers basic rental car insurance as part of the rental
price. Personal Accident Insurance is not included .All car hire prices include Collision Damage Waiver (CDW), Theft
Insurance and Third Party Insurance (up to legal limits). Stolen or
punctured tyres, broken windscreen are
covered by the insurance. Please note that the theft insurance relates
only to the vehicle, and does not cover any personal items, carried in
or on the vehicle. In addition, damage caused by misuse, or gross
negligence is not covered by the terms of the insurance.
In the case of an accident, including injury to a person or damage to a
vehicle, the hire vehicle MUST NOT be moved from the accident site, and
the accident must be reported immediately to the local police and to
Dalaman Car Hire. Accident & alcohol reports must be obtained from
the nearest police station, to ensure that the insurance and CDW remain
valid. In Turkey, the driver is deemed to be 100% responsible, if they
are under the influence of alcohol and / or drugs, which show them to
have been above the legal limits, at the time of the accident. If this
is the case then the insurance automatically becomes void. These
accident and alcohol reports must be submitted to Dalaman Car Hire
within 24 hours of the accident or the Collision Damage Waiver is void,
and the driver becomes responsible for the damage.
ADDITIONAL TERMS OF HIRE.
In the event that the keys of the hired vehicle are lost, the customer
will be charged for a replacement set of keys. This will be more
expensive for vehicles that are fitted with an immobiliser system,
because these keys can only be replaced by the main agents for the said
vehicle.
The customer will be charged for the costs of any repairs, mechanical
defects, maintenance or transportation costs in the event of the wrong
type of fuel being placed in the vehicle.
Damage to the under carriage of the vehicle is covered under the
insurance. However, should such damage occur, such as heavy impact with
rocks causing damage or scratching, the customer must notify the local
police or gendarme, before moving the vehicle, and obtain an accident
report. If this accident report is not obtained, the customer will be
responsible for all costs associated with the damage, including repair,
maintenance, new parts, and any associated transportation costs.
Any defects, repair, maintenance new parts which result from improper
use of the vehicle will be charged to the customer. Confirmation of
whether the damage or defect to the vehicle has been caused by improper
use will be determined by an inspection and report by an authorised
service station.
Should the vehicle licence be lost during the lease period, the customer
will be charged for the cost of a replacement licence. As this will
render the vehicle unuseable, the customer will also be liable to cover
the cost of any daily hire charges for the said vehicle, until the
replacement licence has been issued.
