This adds to other reports you have on this subject. I rented a car from Hertz in Baltimore Washington International Airport which happened to be equipped with a plate pass / EZ pass transponder. Used it to go through the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel twice (1 round trip). Posted toll is $2.00 each way. Received a charge of $12.00 from American Traffic Solutions. Expected toll to be added to my Hertz bill. Hertz forwarded by credit card number to American traffic Solutions without my authorization. Nothing in the rental contract indicated that this would be done and no consent was given by me. There was no indication by Hertz that this equipment would be provided in the car and nothing as to the terms of its use or that they would charge me 3 times the posted toll for using it. Currently disputing with the credit card company.
If you rent a car from Hertz, DO NOT use the transponder and insist that it be removed. This is a ripoff.
