The hirer is responsible for the applicable "excess" of the cost of damage to Third Party property or to the rented vehicle, including single vehicle accident, windscreen and tyre damage, towing and recovery costs, theft, fire, break-in or vandalism with the exception of the 'exclusions'. This also includes the cost of the daily rental fo the period the vehicle is off fleet for accident repairs. The excess is applicable regardless of who is at fault and must be paid at the time the accident report is completed, not at the completion of the rental. The excess will be refunded is Maui is successful in recovering the cost of the damages from the Third Party. The excess applies in respect of each claim, not each rental. This excess can be reduced, in most circumstances, by the purchase of Excess Reduction Option 1 or Option 2.

The amount is determined by the Protection Package selected (refer to the "For Your Protection" section). For security purposes, only a credit card can be used to provide a vehicle security deposit.
