Narrative

Enterprise rental regional manager Amber Backman is allowing staff to release vehicles after having criminal damage to them and even on the release paperwork she allows techs to send it clearly states Windshield star and all her workers think that it is ok and "normal" to do these things. I repeatedly attempted to redirect staff and they are selling DW/CDW as insurance and making customer provide them PII over the phone or else they have to bring it in for them to inspect. Even after speaking to David Neighbors who is allegedly the Risk or compliance supervisor and he finally took the Avondale IR number he did not addess the lack of knowledge and compliance of staff and how the manager Amber Backman repeatedly said to me " per industry standards, I don't need to take report" of the damage to the windshield obstructing the view of drivers on their rentals.
