According to Turo Support, if you're involved in an accident caused by someone else or if someone vandalizes or damages the car, they will try to recover damage costs from the at-fault party. However, if they are unsuccessful in doing so, you will be responsible for the repair cost of any damage that occurred during your trip.
Turo only requires a deposit for the following circumstances:
Yes, Turo offers insurance for both hosts and renters. Turo hosts choose the protection plan that's right for them, and every host plan comes standard with $750,000 in third-party liability insurance from Liberty Mutual.

If a renter decides to decline, they will still receive the state minimum of liability protection, but they become completely responsible for the cost to repair or replace the car if it's damaged, lost, or stolen.
