Return and inspection of the car 1. Prepare the checklist provided by the rental company before 2. Rental agreement, insurance documents, deposit receipt 3. Wash the car before returning it, both interior and exterior. Otherwise, you may be fined up to 500 Swiss francs for car washing (e.g. in Switzerland) 4. All photos taken when picking up the car 5. Return the car with a full tank of gas. Otherwise, you may be charged for refueling, which can be expensive 6. Take a photo of the fuel gauge 7. Take photos of any potential scratches to avoid being overcharged 8. When the car is inspected, make sure to check what is written and any associated fees. If there are any objections, resolve them before signing. This can be a stressful time, especially if you are in a rush to catch a flight, and you may overlook certain issues. It can be difficult to resolve them once you have returned home 9. The deposit refund will depend on the rental company checking for any violations, parking tickets, or toll charges. It may take 1-2 months to receive the deposit refund, and there will be no notification. The charges will be automatically deducted Additional information: Some gas stations offer automatic and manual car wash services. Both require self-operation. Automatic car wash: Drive in, the brushes will automatically clean and dry the car. The cost varies from 10-29 Swiss francs, depending on the size of the car. Advantages: Quick, approximately 10-20 minutes. Disadvantages: Expensive, and the car may not be thoroughly cleaned. Vacuuming requires coins, approximately 1 franc for 10 minutes Manual car wash: Advantages: Cheaper, more thorough cleaning, and can help identify any issues. Disadvantages: Tiring, limited time with the car wash hose, need to purchase car wash detergent. Indoor vacuuming requires renting a vacuum for approximately 1 franc for 10 minutes ? Switzerland Q&A

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A

When picking up the car, be sure to check on the spot whether there are scratches on the car, whether the tools and documents are complete, and whether the lights are OK, etc. If there are defects, be sure to ask the staff to issue a pickup and inspection form and note the details, and keep this form. When returning the car, also be sure to ask the staff to issue a return and inspection form to indicate that the car is in good condition. Keep these two forms well for a long time as evidence to refute deductions. Also be sure to abide by traffic rules, otherwise you will receive traffic deduction information after returning home. Wishing everyone a smooth journey ? Switzerland Q&A

I also don't want to drive directly from the airport to Zermatt, but I have no choice. The hotel I have my eye on is only available for booking at this time. I will arrive in Zurich at 6:30 am on July 19th. I originally planned to stay in Gersau on the 19th, and in Zermatt on the 20th and 21st. However, the hotel I like in Zermatt is only available for the 19th and 20th. So, I have no choice but to drive that far on the first day. I think I have enough time, and I can take it slow, stopping to rest and enjoy the scenery along the way. I wonder if there are any suitable places to stop for food and sightseeing along the way. I saw on the map that Fronalstock seems nice, and it's said to have a fjord-like scenery ? Switzerland Q&A
