#### You may receive a proportional reimbursement for the cost to repair a damaged clutch if you meet eligibility requirements.

## Eligibility for clutch repair reimbursement 

You’re eligible for a proportional reimbursement for clutch repair if you meet the following criteria:

*   Your vehicle is less than five years old and has its original clutch **_or_**  is more than five years old and a factory-certified mechanic replaced the clutch with OEM parts less than 5 years ago; **_AND_**
*   An ASE or other certified mechanic provides written certification that a guest misused and damaged the clutch  

## Proportional reimbursement

The amount you’ll receive in proportional reimbursement depends on three factors: 

*   Turo’s presumed normal clutch lifespan of a clutch as 75,000 miles (120,700 km). If you have documentation that your clutch has a longer lifespan, submit it with your damage claim. 
*   The number of miles driven since clutch installation.
*   The deductible amount associated with the protection plan you chose.

#### Example

Your vehicle’s clutch has a presumed lifespan 75,000 miles (120,700 km), but it failed at 50,000 miles (80,467 km) due to guest misuse. We determine the clutch had one-third of its life remaining. The shop estimates a total repair cost of $1,200\*. When the damage occurred, your car was under a protection plan with a $250\* deductible. We’ll reimburse you for one-third of the repair costs in excess of your deductible amount. So, one-third of the $1,200\* repair estimate is $400\*. Subtract your $250\* deductible, and you’ll receive $150\* in reimbursement.

  

 \*Amounts are in A$ for Australia, CA$ for Canada, € in France, and £ for the United Kingdom. They’re in US$ for the United States and its territories.
