If a rental car is not returned, it will be declared "stolen" after a certain period of time (which depends on the company and how tolerant the manager is) and the police will be notified to look for it.
Keep in mind that the rental company knows who you are and where you live, and will give that information to the police as well.
You do not want to be charged with grand theft auto. The police will arrest you, and in general the whole process will not look good on your credit rating.
Typically, a car rental agency does not want to get to this point, because once the car is reported stolen, the chances of getting the car back, or any of the money owed on it, becomes very very small. Most branches will work with a customer to get the car returned in a way that does not require involving the police.
If you want to keep a car longer than the time you originally rented it for, contact the branch where you rented it and ask how to do this. Some places will just want you to come to the office to formally process an extension on the rental.
