Rejected first car offered as it had tire issues. 2nd Car had been smoked in recently and stunk. Had to take 2nd car as no others available. First car offered not safe to drive. Left rear tire was 8 pounds low. Front right tire had Dime size chunk of rubber missing from the tread face. The agent in Lewes had been apprised of those issues when I turned in the same car 3 days earlier. She offered me the same car. I assumed it had been fixed. It had not.

There was no one at the desk and I had to wait for a while. The guy then asked me how much I was supposed to be charged and seemed very distracted. He also attached me to the wrong account, which caused a long delay when I tried to return the car in Manhattan.

Pros:

The car was fine. It drove well, and there were no problems.. Ir was adequate I'd use them again.

Cons:

There was no one at the car rental pickup when i got there. I had to call a number and no one answered. AS i was calling the 2nd number, a man showed up. There seemed to have been some trouble with my credit card. The man was patient and we got through it. I would have liked a reminder about the tolls and that I didn't have EZ pass.
