There was nobody there to inspect the car and hand it over to me. When I dropped off the car, they then inspected the vehicle and found a scratch below the bumper which they insisted was not there. No normal person would inspect the underneath of the vehicle when hiring. They then proceeded to invoice me for the "so called" damage. The vehicle was not new and had many other minor dents. The bumper also had a scratch on the other side, which they said they invoiced to the previous renter. Effectively, they are collecting twice to repair the same panel. I will not hire from Alamo South Africa or their associates ever again.

In Puerto Vallarta the ladies there were super helpful, I believe the manager helped us as well. She was super helpful, approachable and she helped us with anything we were asking her

I was never again rent from Alamo, National or Enterprise again. Got to the location at 11:30pm and they were closed even after giving me assurances that they would wait for me. They had my flight information and knew exactly at what time I was arriving and never bothered to wait for me. I got stranded at their location at their location way outside of the airport with no other means of transportation at close to midnight with my 11 year old, my wife and all of our luggage. NEVER AGAIN!

Well I was unable to get the car because of the resident rules for being from Louisiana. I was unable to use the card I reserved the vehicle with but they held my deposit and rental fees until Monday to be returned.

The vehicle I ended up choosing was misaligned. it pulled to the left even at 5-10 mph with the wheel straight. this should be very easy to notice if anyone does any type of testing or inspection of the vehicle. I originally chose the Premium vehicle category, but there was nothing available that fits this description. I was offered a Camry, but there’s no reason to pay extra for the Premium if i’m going to just get a regular mid or full size sedan. so it would have been a waste. To get closer to my money’s worth, and not waste the money I paid for Premium instead of mid-size or full-size sedan. I just upgraded to Luxury, since otherwise it’s like I paid extra for no reason to have paid for Premium but received a regular sedan. When I upgraded to Luxuy it was very expensive, around $40 extra per day for 6 days. The vehicle I received has lots of scuffs on the back, some on the side, and I later realized the alignment was quite off. It pulls to the left, this car may even be unsafe to drive if that isn’t fixed. The associate I had around 4:30-5:30AM on April 4th was very helpful, I can reccomend and speak highly of her assistance. I believe her name was Ava or Eva.
