What is a car rental Security deposit?
This is an amount that is blocked on the credit card of the lead driver at the start of rental. It normally covers the car excess amount and the deposit for the fuel in the tank. The excess is the amount that you would be liable for damage to the rental vehicle that you are held responsible for.
