Existing driver has an expired Driver's License, they want to continue driving with Lyft. What steps do you take next?
Have driver upload new Driver's license. Run a DMV check on Tom and refresh, once it passes. Driver is good to go.
“Does not match the user’s Driver’s License number”
This code means there is a discrepancy with the Driver’s license number.
Resolution:
One way to solve it, is to go into ground Tom. Open “Vehicles & Docs”, click on “Driver’s license” and in the
“Driver license number” area, you can delete spaces or “-” that may be separating numbers. Click save.
Now refresh XD tool, try to start contract and it should go through this time.

Renter has closed the contract and is coming back to dispute his deposit not being returned. It is not appearing in his summary statement. Renter started renting on 04/17/2019.
How do you check when his contract was closed on 01/13/2020?
Go to Ground control Tom, on "User charges' ', make sure the calendar goes back to 04/16/2019. The original deposit information should appear including when it was refunded and to what card.
Renter came in to get preventative maintenance. Mechanics say they have to swap due to broken windshield. We can swap the same day, what is one thing you do before closing a contract?
Create another reservation, so when the $250 windshield charge goes through, it will not take the deposit on file.
Pay issue.

Renter came to close contract, but account was deleted before we could close contract on ABG. Can we rent that vehicle right away?

New renter:
Unable to start XD contract due to having "Pax disable" on Lyft account.
T&S is not involved and has no chargebacks. How do we proceed to start driver on XD?
Post TOM and question on #Riskops only if is states "fraud or chargebacks" in ground TOM. Ask for assistance on reactivating driver due to their "pax disabled" status.
Other than that, post on #midwest_field_support and see if they can be reactivated.
“Hertz dash api failed”
This happens when experiencing latency on Hertz rental starts. Basically Hertz is not communicating
(HERTZ- OUTAGE) with XD tool. At times you can continue to try to start and it may start the contract. If not, check #XD-ops, if not yet posted, post with screenshot. Do not start a new thread if already posted!
Resolution:
