The release for the gas cap was broken and I was not able to pry open the gas cap to put gas in the car. The car was given to me that way. I had to wait a couple of hours for roadside assistance, lost half a day and had to change my plans. Also the car was given to me with the tank half-full but was marked as full on the rental agreement. I returned it full to avoid another hassle. The tow truck driver that came for roadside assistance was great. But they charged me for roadside assistance. That should be included in the cost of the car. Thank you.

There was no line and still took an hour to get the car. The also added a bunch of fees and charges above what I already paid once I got there. Felt ripped off. Never again.

Horrible service. Literally kept changing their policy right in front of me. Would not give me the car I reserved. Tried to overcharge me. Never left with car and not disputing prepayment charges with Expedia. Scam

Never rented from them because they close their AIRPORT RENTAL CENTER at 5:00 pm. Had to go to Payless to get a car

Manipulated into having to spend an extra $755 for mandatory insurances and lied to about the sun pass. As we only went through one toll. They claimed there’d be soooo many. Gave use a low battery key fob and did not reimburse us for having to buy our own battery due to the stress of it dying and leaving us stranded. When asked for some customer service and compensation. We were ghosted through their email and then said they couldn’t help us at drop off and that I had to email the people that weren’t responding to us. I wonder if you guys could help since you made the deal so goddamn attractive online to only set us up for the trap we were about to walk into. Terrible experience. Won’t be recommending and will be actively trying to make people avoid their business unless I’m given some customer service at some point :)

It was a bait and switch, so many add on fees and was told I was required to take insurance with them. The employee was rude and the answer was always, "everyone charges those fees". Will never deal with this company again, mostly because of the attitude and the over charge. If I was not abandoned there I would have gone to a reputable company. Just to not the tires where well worn and roared when driven at any speed.
