Not what I asked for

On line it said that collision and theft was $8.98 but I got charged $34.95 per day. False advertising. I had Liability but not comprehension and told the attend. I was surprised at the added cost so a slightly more than $200 plus $8-98 per day rate turned into almost $450. On top of that it was dark out and the car was backed up near a barrier. I looked for the obvious faults in the car condition but didn't see down low near the under carriage that a red reflector was broken. I saw it later when I had ease of seeing the full rear of the car. When I turned the car in I mentioned it to the attendant and he said yes it was already noted. So the Q is, how many people got charged to repair this problem when it was not their fault?
