Dent in a Rented Car

Question

Hello and blessings to the rabbis of the Beit Din. I rented a car from a rental company, and there was a dent. Am I obligated to tell them that I caused the dent, or since they checked and didn't notice, is it their issue, and I'm not obligated to inform them? (Of course, not in a situation where they ask if everything is okay, then I am obligated to tell them.)

Answer

According to the instructions of the Gaon, Rabbi A. Fried, shlita, there is no obligation to inform them.
