Pros:

The overall process was excellent. Staff, Company and company to customer was excellent.

Cons:

Not sure what features were available in Jeep model. - We were 7000+ feet on climb which our SUV handled well. When it came to steep decline (coming down the mountain), the button to turn on decline going 5 mph feature was disabled. My concern on steep decline from 7000+ feet was a concern if I would burn the braking system. Not sure if this is a feature that needs to be purchased, but at the same time there was a risk. Overall: Great SUV and would recommend to others.

This place cx’d my reservation without contacting me. Then I asked the supervisor Lissette at the Concord Ca location for her supervisor bc she couldn’t answer the questions I needed and she redirected me to the customer service center. I didn’t ask for that department. I asked for your supervisor. Totally disgusted with budget and will never again in life rent from them and Yall are about to go viral when I put it on my multiple platforms.

The pick up and drop off staff were friendly enough. The car when i picked it up was really dirty inside and out. I had to ask the guy to vacuum it and even when he was done it was still really dirty. The car was covered with dust outside. It was my first experience on renting a car that was not cleaned up prior to renting and it has a lot of dents / scratches that maybe a good thing so nobody would steal from it?

Found trash throughout the car. Not small crumbs, but center counsel was full of junk and found straws between seats. The vehicle was not a full tank, which is annoying when picking up a car.

Pros:

Nice check in Clerk though very busy. I got a great price and was lucky to get an upgrade to a brand new Volkswagen. Amazing price from Amazon and Avis. The clerk says Avis has their own insurance for $11 which would be easier if you had a problem because they will say they take care of instead of going through a third-party

Pros:

I had the available to have a car but that is it.

Cons:

The care rented was a Truck that was burning oil it smelled horrible the tires were old. As we did the drop off we had to go up stairs because we rented the car from Concord with a drop off at SFO airport paperwork was not done correctly for that and I paid way too much money for this car I am extremely disappointed. Plus I took the $30 insurance coverage. I actually drove to San Fran parked the car at my son's and took uber around because the smell was bad. I am a travel agent from OKT --33644332 I would appreciate some type of compinsation in this matter .Plus the fact that your counter help seem some what displaced in providing information. Thank you kindly.
