Everything went well. The staff are friendly and accommodating. The processing is smooth but the office space is small. We have to wait outside to give way for the other costumers.we are satisfied how the contract was explained.

I was given a Ford Edge for the week. On the first day, I had trouble putting the car into drive twice, and almost had the vehicle towed.. Luckily, the gear shift eventually moved, so I was able to cancel the tow, and I switched vehicles the next day at my original pick up location in Somerset. They made that change for me and I ended up with a Toyota 4Runner, which was a great drive. The staff was very nice, and concerned about my comfort.

I was never able to rent the vehicle. There were insurance claims that were made a priority so no cars were available. I was told someone attempted to call me however my phone wasn’t listed.
