Fill the windshield wash fluid reservoir before each rental! In all fairness I've had the same issue with virtually every car rental agency I've ever used!

Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

To actually get a car I had reserved instead of canceling my rental and then when I try to rebook I am charged a $250 drop fee that was not there the day before. Poor business and I was stuck out of town for an extra 5 days.

Budget called me the day of the rental and said they had no cars and were cancelling my rental.

Cons:

The only ‘con’ I have is that I am still waiting for a final receipt. I dropped it off last Wednesday and today is Monday, and I don’t have a final bill. But that’s minor. Overall, I would definitely rent from Budget again. 😊
