She instructed us to return the rental car in the same condition with the gas tank empty and we would not be charged for gas. Estimated cost of the rental per the attached rental record was {$84.00}.

The error has not been corrected. XXXX was also responsible to either correct the error or explain why they believe the bill was correct withing 90 days.
