Therefore, if you are the first car at a light, wait a few seconds before you go when it turns green, since a car will probably be turning left in front of you through the yellow light.
  • In Woodhaven and the surrounding Detroit metropolitan area, rush hour is from 6 am to 10 am and then from 3 pm to 7 pm on weekdays. Friday's traffic is particularly congested. If you are driving car rentals in Woodhaven, consider investing in a GPS add-on in order to help you navigate around the worst traffic. From November to April in Detroit, be prepared for harsh winter weather, including snow, ice, very cold temperatures, and freezing winds. Always clear your car of snow, ice, and frost before driving it, stick to plowed roads, and if you skid on ice, steer into to the skid until you regain control of your car.

At the last minute, when I went to pick up the car, I was an 1-2 hour early. The Hertz representative charged me extra money for picking up my car early, which I think is ridiculous. You are allowed to pick up cars as early as previous nite with no charges in cities where office closes at 5 pm., but Hertz charged me for 2 hours extra. Ridiculous!

Booked with directly with Hertz website days in advance, reservation confirmed by Hertz, hour before Im scheduled to pickup they call to say they have no cars and that they’ll try to find one…..wtf. I show up an hour and half later than my pickup time they still have no car, but found one a half hour away and expect me to drive out there to get it. Finally they offer me a Lyft to take me out there. Bottom line I got a car 3 hrs later than when I needed it to get on the road. Unprofessional for a rental car company to have no cars to cover rental reservations that they have confirmed.

I Was supposed to show up at 8pm, but got an earlier flight to keep my options open because I know there was a car shortage. Customer support on the phone said they couldn’t guarantee any thing earlier. I was expecting to sit at the Detroit airport for four hours. The guy behind the desk was Ramone, and he was professional, friendly, and made absolutely certain I got on the road almost as early as I could make it. Ramone didn’t just saved my bacon, but he helped me get to have a full Thanksgiving with a girl I’m in love with, all with a smile on his face. Please give him a raise or someone is going to hire him out from under you. I’ve usually rented from enterprise, but I’m going with y’all first from now on just because of that guy. Thanks! Y’all are the best!

Service by staff at pick-up and drop off was great. The vehicle was not really what we had expected and I did have to take a lot of photographs due to damage and scratches on the vehicle upon pick-up.

Pros:

Staff was friendly and helpful. Upgraded the vehicle (with a charge) to make our trip the best it could be. Vehicle was brand new (3 miles on it when I drove it off the lot), clean, and had a full tank of gas.

Cons:

The rental counter was short staffed (1 person working the main counter, 1 person working the "Gold" counter) with several people standing in line. I arrived at 3:05 for a 3:00 pick-up and didn't get out the door until almost 4. Service was great, once I got to an agent.
