4337 REVIEW DENIED Civil Code section 1936, which has been held to create a safe harbor for auto rental companies that impose an additional charge for refueling a rented vehicle returned with less fuel than when rented, does not apply to truck rentals; using a vehicle's fuel gauge to determine the amount of fuel required for refueling is unlawful since it does not measure in liters, gallons, or fractions thereof as required by statute, and is unfair because of the the inherent inaccuracy of such gauges; the representation that a charge is a refueling fee when a truck to which it is subject is not actually refueled is deceptive.CitationARON v U-HAUL (Refueling Ripoff) 143 CA4 796 [See: B&PC17200 etseq; Cel-Tech v LA Cellular 20 C4 163, T/AT 5/99; Schnall v Hertz 78 CA4 1144, T/AT 4/00]
