Imagine you're in Chisinau, you rented an elegant car, maybe even one of those luxury rental cars from Crazyrent, you had a wonderful day, you parked legally, and in the morning... unpleasant surprise: broken mirrors, key marks on the doors, or even worse, a broken window.
These things don’t happen often, but when they do, every second feels like forever — especially if you’re in a new city or have never faced a similar situation before. The good news? You’re not alone. The Crazyrent team knows how stressful this can be and is ready to step in quickly.
In the lines below, we’ll walk you through what it means when a rental car gets vandalized, the exact steps you need to take, and how car rental in Chișinău are built to truly support you — not just make empty promises.
Car vandalism: a real risk, but manageable
Unfortunately, even in Chișinău — a generally safe city — there are occasional acts of vandalism, especially in unguarded or poorly lit parking areas. That’s why when you rent a car in Chișinău, it’s wise to also think ahead about where you’ll leave it overnight. Most incidents occur at night, especially in crowded or suburban neighborhoods.
So here’s the first important piece of advice: always go for safe parking. If you’re picking up your car from Crazyrent at the Chișinău airport, you can choose the private, well-lit, and monitored parking areas there. And if you’re renting from Crazyrent anywhere in Moldova, the team can recommend secure parking spots throughout the city — including in the downtown area.
What to do if your rental car was vandalized
Stay calm, and don’t move the vehicle. Leave it exactly how you found it.
Take detailed photos from multiple angles — visual evidence is essential.
Call the police — all vandalism cases must be reported. You’ll receive an official report, which will be needed for the insurance and rental company.
Call Crazyrent immediately — whether you're renting short- or long-term, our team will help handle the situation, and if needed, replace the vehicle as soon as possible.
