Turo announced policy changes to improve vehicle safety and align with consumer expectations, including requiring annual safety inspections for all vehicles listed in the US and Canada.
Inspection deadlines vary depending on whether the car is newly listed or a recent model year, with potential unlisting for missed inspections.
Turo partners offer complimentary or discounted inspection services to support host compliance with the new safety requirements.
Cleaning and smoking policies have been updated; excessive uncleanliness or any smoking in vehicles incurs a significant fee, with the ability to directly report violations through the app.
Additional support is provided to hosts via the Turo app for reporting issues, with the intent of streamlining conflict resolution and ensuring guest accountability.

Turo is a peer-to-peer car rental marketplace that enables car owners to rent out their vehicles to travelers and locals. Unlike traditional rental companies, Turo offers a diverse selection of cars that meet specific needs such as 4x4s for rugged terrain, luxury cars for scenic drives, and vans for moving days. Users can browse cars by type, location, or experience, and book them directly from the owners, skipping traditional rental counters. Turo provides various protection plans and allows flexible arrangements, like delivery to your location and adding additional drivers. They've recently expanded to offer their services in France.
