John, Oct 2020

Cons:

We were set out with a bad tire that kept losing air. I aired it up many times. Took it to a Hertz office who sent us to a Firestone dealer for repair. The tire had been repaired but was leaking. We took our rental time to do your maintenance work. Then corporate decided it needed an oil change after we had waited for the approval and repair of the tire . and would no release the car. We were give $50.00 for our time and trouble of doing your maintenance, rely cheap for our loss of use and dangerous condition.

Passenger van

KAYAK
Had two 15 person vans reserved for months. Enterprise called at 7 pm the night before on 1 and at 7 am the day of reservation on the other: “we don’t have any 15 p vans.” No explanation. No help finding 15 p vans at other locations. Even though their website showed availability that day. Pathetic lack of service and consideration. I will not use Enterprise again.

Cons:

One of the vehicles was on empty. Both were dirty (crumbs and curly hairs in cup holders, dirty carpet and seats). Awaiting to see if I am charged for returning one of the vehicles on empty the way I received it.

Pros:

The staff was trying to be friendly, but seemed to be understaffed.

Cons:

The staff was overwhelmed. There was one angry man who commanded everyone's attention and made me nearly an hour late getting my car.
