They didn’t have a minivan available, so I had to wait until one returned. It wasn’t in the best shape & the gas tank wasn’t full, however I didn’t fill it up when I returned it. Also the charge an additional $300 deposit for renting cars. I wasn’t aware of that before reserving the car.

I went to pick up the car at the time I reserved and Hertz was closed for the weekend. Been chasing around ever since trying to get refunded.
