I've never had that happen. In most cases, the rental company "eats" the cost of normal wear and tear. This is what causes a car to depreciate after all. Is the rental company actually getting the repairs done? If not, then they're double dipping: Depreciating the car, and charging the customer. And I know they're not getting the repairs done, because when I rent a car, they show me a list of the dings that it's already sustained.
