Pros:

The drop off was great. Service in Atlanta was very fast and contactless. The rental hold money was returned quickly following drop off. The car ran fine.

Cons:

The car was not very clean either inside or outside upon pickup. The car was not available at the pick up time and I had to wait about 45 minutes to an hour for a vehicle to arrive that I could use. The person checking me in was not forthcoming about the amount Alamo was going to charge my card which caused unnecessary confusion during pickup. I have used Alamo before and did not have any problems when renting in other states so my family will likely rent from them again in the future. Maybe it was the ERW airport having an off day.

My agreement was for $405.53, my receipt said $405.53 but my credit card was charged 605.53. This is unacceptable, what is that extra $200? There is no accounting for it in the receipt, I didn't check my credit card charge prior to checking out but instead used my printed receipt to check the charge. The charge hasn't officially cleared yet but I am concerned that this was a bait and switch by Avis.

Like the Nissan Rouge

Cons:

The inside windshield was covered with a residue film as if cleaned seemed to have been cleaned with a lysol wipe or something resulting in dangerous visibility; which became noticeable once out into traffic and nighttime headlights. Desperately trying to clean it with my sleeve, I missed the exit resulting in an unwanted late night tour through Newark. The agent at Newark was pleasant enough, though I had no instructions concerning dropbox drop off resulting in two trips of considerable distance from the rental lot at ABE at 11 PM. I’m sure there’s small print somewhere, but the price went from $81 to ringing up to $250, which the agent explained was $100 holding fee, hopefully refundable for my two hour rentsl.

Cons:

ion. I called and was told that the max. rental that Payless can do is 30 days and that if I wanted to extend to 7/16 that I would have to return to the airport and pay whatever the rate was at that time. Disgusted, I returned the car on 6/18 and was charged a higher rate than my confirmation.

Despite providing both Kayak and Sixt my flight arrival time into EWR, the Sixt rental counter desk was closed and I was unable to retrieve the car I had reserved and pre-paid. Fortunately, the other major rental car brand desks were open and I rented elsewhere. Thus far Sixt has resisted refunding their $400+ charge. Rent from Sixt in the US at your own risk.

Wait time to check-in was 15-20 minutes while being the first one on queue. A lot of confusing offers for protection and other add-ons which resulted in additional charges. Car was not well cleaned. There were hideous stains on the interior roof of the car. The car itself, while being an upgrade, was not well maintained -- car shook uncontrollably between 60-70mph on the freeway. Drop-off was confusing and aggravating. No visible attendant on-site for the drop-off. The signage for where to return the car was also not visible. We ook the trouble to park into a Sixt parking spot and was walking toward rental office when approached by an attendant in one of the returned cars. She was combative and aggressive in asking why we did not find her to check back in the car. We would have had she been around and visible. Maybe it was not entirely her fault as perhaps the agency was short-staffed, however, the customer should not have been made to feel as if we did something wrong when we were just trying to be helpful.

The car smelled like cigarette smoke. They refused to give me a printed contract. They insisted that they take my photo before renting the car. When I refused, since I've never heard of such a thing, they made me wait at least 20 minutes to get a short form. Then on return, I was told I'd be reimbursed for the days I didn't use, but I was not.

I ordered a compact car but when I arrived they gave me a huge car that I wasn’t comfortable driving. I told them I wanted a compact car because that was what I ordered but when I said that she said they didn’t have anything else so I had no other choice because I had to leave at 8 in order to make it to my destination. They put me in a very uncomfortable situation and that was not what I paid for annnd on top of that I had to pay double the gas price because it was such a big car and gas is incredibly expensive right now. All around a bad experience because I had no other choice after trekking all the way to the airport and couldn’t just turn around or get a different car.

Pros:

Drop off was quick and painless. I think we waited about 25 minutes for the van to be ready at the Newark airport when we went to pick it up. We had a Chrysler Pacifica van and it ran well, got over 25 mpg driving fast, and the AC worked good.

Cons:

On the downside, the third seat was elecric folding and it did not work properly. We had to manually push the cushions down to get a flat floor. For a long trip, the front seats in the Pacifica van are strictly mediocre, and the 2nd row seats are awful - like a padded jump seat. Too many gadgets. I will reserve final judgement on the billing for when we get the credit card statement.

The car was spacious, the pickup representative was very kind despite our delay, as a van (which was reserved and needed for moving space) wasn't at first available and we had to wait. The car ran nicely and was very clean.

Cons:

Transparency of cost. We just received our final charge and were surprised by a $150 cleaning fee, despite the car being perfectly clean upon returning it. This was not disclosed prior to our dropoff and really pushed the cost of this rental over the line for us financially. Had we known of so many surprise fees, we would not have booked at this cost.

Confusion when picking up car - it was origami given to another couple and then they were told to get out and give the car to me (with no explanation)

Pros:

Nice car but not enough explanation on how to operate the features of the car.

Cons:

Getting to the rental location was difficult, no clear direction on where and how to get a pick up. Everything is on an app. and that is a pain if you phone is no working well.

Cons:

Please ensure that u add additional time to your booking in the beginning itself. They charged me for 2 whole additional days for returning the car about 3 hours late. Also, the Audi Q3 is not the best option for a long drive. The car hydroplaned massively on wet road conditions in upstate NY. Seat quality and ride quality left a whole lot to be desired. Overall, I’m extremely disappointed. Wouldn’t be recommending.

Pros:

The great Audi A5 and the quick/convenient pickup and drop off.

Cons:

The App is essential and I was only recommended to get it ahead of time. Tell the customer that it is required, so they will have all info loaded ahead of time.

Cons:

The cost is high high, but it was expected. The pick-up spot gate was closed and there is no parking for those who come with a car.

Cons:

Attendant at location was unprofessional, unhelpful, and rude enough that I opted to cancel my reservation and make other arrangements. I can't say anything about the vehicle itself since I was never in it.

Cons:

For starters, on the day of pick up the woman at the reservation counter called and ask me if I can pick up the car earlier than my reserved time because she wanted to go home early. When I picked up the car she wanted to charge me for miles

Pros:

Easy to get to, shuttle driver was really nice. Not many people there so easy in and out.

Cons:

They took a deposit and it was not returned within a week, which is when I am writing this review. Spoke on the phone with them yesterday, was told they would refund money that day, but not done. An unprofessional operation - there was no receipt given at return.

Pros:

Good on gas. Remember, Jersey has gas station attendants. You do not pump your own gas.

Cons:

2012 vehicle. Bubble on front right tire. Windshield wiper smacking right pilar. Many nicks and dings over the entire car which, as it turns out, blended in with most vehicles in Jersey... Only after you make to reservation you find out where the rental location is. Take the train to the "hotel pickup". Don't go to the "Rental Car" station. READ THE AGREEMENT CAREFULLY!

Got in and got out. Was cheap. Drop-off was simple.

Cons:

Finding the pick-up location was a huge hassle. It's tucked under a parking garage next to a hotel. Can't see the signage from the street.

KAYAK

Pros:

the car was very old and was malfunctioning. I could barely drive up-hill as the engine was stalling. I had difficulty passing other cars as I couldn't accelerate due to engine problems, I guess? This car should have not been in service as it wasn't safe for the driver or for the passing traffic. Additionally, Ace charged me $350 on my credit card even though I prepaid for the rental. I never got a receipt for the charge and I'm disputing it with my credit card. Ace office was old and smelly, the employees were smoking cigarettes in the office. Terrible experience for a car rental. I will never use ACE again

Top tips for hiring a car at Newark Liberty Airport

  • Getting car hire at Newark Airport is a great way to start your trip to New Jersey. Public transport in New Jersey is more focused on travel between New Jersey and other states like New York and Philadelphia and less so on travel within the state; this makes some places difficult to access using public transport. Your own vehicle will allow you to travel freely both within Newark and into the nearby states with total flexibility.
  • If an easy and quick return is a priority for you then take advantage of the fact that many providers offering car hire at Newark Airport offer after-hours drop-off. If you choose this option, make sure you check the terms of the return thoroughly. Depending on whether your payment is hourly, daily, or weekly you may continue to be charged until opening the following day or for the full following day. Remember to check your vehicle thoroughly for any belongings before returning the keys and any necessary paperwork to the appropriate drop box.
  • Most of the providers of car hire at Newark Airport are busiest between 12:00 and 16:00 so earlier in the morning or later in the day in the evening will be the best time to pick up and drop off your vehicle to avoid long queues. Luckily, most providers have long opening hours. For example, Budget opens at 06:00 and Alamo opens at 05:00 and both are open until 00:00. For complete flexibility, Avis is open 24h a day.
  • Newark is a very large airport so be sure to take note of the location of your vehicle when you pick it up as you will likely need to return it to the same place. You may also wish to take note when you leave of the easiest way to get to the departures hall from the parking lot so that you can be confident in getting to your flight easily after you return your vehicle. Be aware that it is not permitted to park in front of, or next to, the terminal buildings at any time for any reason, even briefly.
  • Book your car hire at Newark Liberty Airport at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price
