Little Italy (San Diego) car hire reviews and directory
The car wasn’t full of gas. Only had 1/4 of a tank. The last thing I wanted to do was go to the gas station. Doesn’t make sense to me. Isn’t that a rule??? And they didn’t have a reservation because they said kayak canceled it!!!
Vincent and Lauren both helped us a ton when a pickup error caused our reservation to go sideways. There needed to be a better explanation online that there are multiple pickup locations right by the airport that have different hours of operation.

It was the fastest I was in and out of a rental office. The individual working at the drop off in Palm Springs was really nice. I can't tell you how disappointed I was that the type of car I reserved was not there since I made the reservation ahead of time.
Car wasn’t given because of the credit card. Still waiting for the refund

The pickup process was SO LONG! We were probably in line for two hours to pick up our car. We also needed to provide insurance information that required me to log in and find dates, amounts, etc. If I'd known this in advance, it could've sped things up.

I told them that ld only rented a car once in my life, I'm 74, my family and friends don't rent cars. My car broke down and I needed transportation. I'd rented a car from a online service, maybe yours, from Fox rental car company for two days and they changed me $29.99 per day for insurance when I had my own and so did Economy which add up to over $500.00 that I didn't know that I didn't have to pay and none of the people helped. After I went back to the rental car companies and they said that after I returned the car there was nothing they could do. What the entire car booking and car rental companies can and should do is created information banners on all of the websites with simple information on how to navigate a car rental. But I understand why there isn't that banner. Dishonest, disceetful, amoral people wouldn't want one.

The car was pretty stained up between all the seats. I was required to pay additional collusion coverage even after I explained that I had purchased the one kayak offered. Still, I was made to purchase the basic coverage. That should be explicitly stated. Other car rentals I've used have not added any additional coverage as required.

Even though I had personal insurance that would cover the car if anything happened, they required me to purchase their insurance to rent the car. That DOUBLED the price of the rental.

The car, itself, was the best part. Pickup and drop off was a bit of an annoyance. When I search for rental cars via search engine such as Kayak, I expect it give me options that match my pickup/drop off locations. Economy Rent a Car is not at the Rental Car Facility; you need to get a Lyft/Uber to Economy. And, Economy’s drop off directions for where the key goes was poorly written and confusing.
I felt like I got nickeled and dimed. So many extra charges. Even though the listing said unlimited miles, I could only drive 50 per day for free, after that there was a charge. Or I could have upgraded to unlimited miles. Proof of insurance required. They also require knowing your deductible.

Company really engages in hard sell tactics for their "insurance" fees. The agent was relentless and wouldn't take multiple "no thanks" from me. The vehicle had no floor mats, and smelled powerfully of some horrible chemical. I had to drive everywhere with the windows rolled down, even on the freeway. I will never rent from this company again.
