A Utah woman was charged $160 for smoking in a rental car she says she never smoked in. Baylie Merrill (@bayliemerrill) shared her experience on TikTok after using the car-sharing platform Turo for a weeklong trip in California. Neither she nor her husband smokes, and her young child was in the car the entire trip.
The rental seemed fine at first. The host was responsive, the listing had good reviews, and Merrill even contacted the host during the trip about an issue with the car’s brakes. When the trip ended, she returned the car, took her own photos, and left a positive review for the host, according to Motor1.com.
