CM Rental Cars
Terms of Use
Last updated: June 2026
Please read the following information in its entirety before using or engaging with our website.
CM Rental Cars is owned and operated by CM Automobile (further referred to as 'CM Rental Cars', 'we', 'us' or 'our').
Your access to this website (further referred to as the 'Site') is conditional upon your acceptance of and compliance with the terms, conditions, notices and disclaimers contained in this document, and any changes to this Terms of Use agreement (further referred to as the 'Agreement') that CM Rental Cars may publish from time to time. By accessing or using this Site in any way — including, without limitation, submitting a booking request, searching the Site or merely browsing the Site — you agree to and are bound by the terms, conditions, restrictions and limitations of this Agreement. Every time you access the Site, you confirm your agreement with this Agreement. You must familiarize yourself with this information and are encouraged to review it often.
1. Eligibility
You must be 18 years of age or older to use the Site. By using the Site, you warrant that you have the right, authority, and capacity to enter into this Agreement.
To rent a vehicle from CM Rental Cars, the driver must be at least 21 years of age and hold a valid driver's license. The license presented at pickup must match the information provided in the booking request and must not be expired.
2. Booking requests and confirmation
Submitting a booking request through the Site does not constitute a confirmed reservation. All booking requests are subject to review and confirmation by our team. We will contact you using the information you provide to confirm your reservation, arrange payment, and finalize the rental agreement.
All rentals are subject to a minimum duration of 3 days. Requests for shorter periods will not be accepted.
All vehicle pickups and returns take place at our location: 1540 Claire Crescent, Montreal, Quebec H8S 4E6, unless otherwise agreed in writing.
Vehicle pickups are available during our business hours, from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, when a member of our team is present to complete the rental agreement and hand over the vehicle. Please select a pickup time within these hours when submitting your booking request.
Vehicle returns may be made at any time. If you return the vehicle outside of our business hours, you may park it at our location and deposit the keys in our secure drop box. The vehicle remains the renter's responsibility until it is returned, and the rental period is calculated up to the agreed return time.
CM Rental Cars reserves the right to refuse or cancel any booking request at its sole discretion, including in cases of incomplete, inaccurate or fraudulent information.
3. Mileage allowance
Unless the unlimited kilometres option is selected, each rental includes an allowance of 150 kilometres per rental day. Kilometres driven beyond this allowance are charged at $0.10 per kilometre, payable at the end of the rental.
An unlimited kilometres option is available for an additional $19.99 per rental day, which must be selected at the time of booking. With this option, no charges apply for kilometres driven during the rental period.
4. Protection plans
At the time of booking, renters choose one of the following protection options. The selected option is confirmed and charged as part of the rental agreement signed at pickup.
CM Complete Protection ($34.99 per rental day): in the event of damage to or theft of the rental vehicle, the renter's financial responsibility is reduced to $0 (no deductible). This option includes tire and windshield coverage as well as roadside assistance. Repairs are performed in-house at our own CM Automobile shop.
Essential Damage Waiver ($24.99 per rental day): in the event of damage to or theft of the rental vehicle, the renter's financial responsibility is limited to a deductible of $500, plus applicable taxes.
Declined protection: renters who decline both options must present satisfactory proof of alternative coverage (such as credit card rental vehicle insurance or a personal automobile insurance policy that extends to rental vehicles) at the time of pickup. Without satisfactory proof, a protection plan must be purchased before the vehicle is released. Renters who decline protection remain fully responsible for any damage, theft or loss not covered by their own provider, including related fees such as loss of use.
Protection plans are contractual damage waivers between the renter and CM Rental Cars; they are not insurance policies. Third-party liability coverage required by Quebec law is included with every rental.
All protection plans are void in cases of prohibited use of the vehicle, including driving under the influence, gross negligence, unauthorized drivers, or use outside the conditions of the rental agreement.
5. Cancellations and no-shows
Confirmed reservations may be cancelled free of charge up to 48 hours before the scheduled pickup time.
For cancellations made less than 48 hours before the scheduled pickup time, a fee equal to one day's rental (plus applicable taxes) applies.
If the renter does not appear at the scheduled pickup time (no-show), a fee equal to one day's rental (plus applicable taxes) applies and the reservation may be released.
To cancel or modify a reservation, contact us by phone or email using the contact information provided on the Site.
6. Driver information
When submitting a booking request, you must provide accurate driver information, including the driver's full name, date of birth, driver's license number, place of issue and expiration date. The driver must present the same valid driver's license at the time of pickup.
Providing false or misleading information may result in cancellation of the booking without notice.
