This past weekend I rented a car from Hertz and it was the WORST experience I've had renting a car…read more I originally booked my reservation through Priceline a month in advance and when I printed out my itinerary the day before I noticed that the specific location did not take debit cards (and when I booked on priceline I used a debit card). I called the location and was told all I needed to do was add a CDP to my reservation and I should be fine as long as I provided two forms of ID. I was told to then call the corporate office to apply the CDP. Basically after two hours on the phone with multiple representatives at the corporate office I was told that they couldn't add a CDP to my reservation (and I wasn't given a reason why they couldn't) and that my only option was to cancel my reservation and re-book it with a credit card. To make matters worse I was told that their "system" wasn't capable of honoring the original rate that I had booked my reservation with (and there were no coupons that they could apply) so I forced to pay DOUBLE the rate I had originally booked. CLEARLY Hertz is a company who cares more about their bottom line than they do customer satisfaction. On top of all of this, I was told that I would be give a car with a full tank of gas and instead it was under halfway full. Upon returning the car (at 5/8's full) I was then charged an extra $15 because even though the car was under halfway full, they had marked that it was 6/8's full. Unfortunately I didn't realize this until after I had left so technically it is on me but that extra $15 adds insult to injury. Overall I had a terrible experience with Hertz and I can't see a reason to rent from them again.

The next morning, I went into the garage and the car was completely dead. I had not left the lights on and sometimes this happens with new cars that have been sitting for too long. I thought I was in luck when I realized this Hertz location was located in the Westin. The staff came into the garage and tried to start the car -- completely dead. The following is a recap of 17 different issues that transpired over the next 15 hours: Issue 1: They had to uncover the lock to try the physical key and open the door -- they didn't use a proper screwdriver and used the physical key instead to pry off the cap, keying the door in the process! Issue 2: They thought the battery was dead, but didn't have a battery jumper onsite, so said I would have to call Roadside Assistance. Issue 3: I had to leave for several meetings and I asked if I could swap the car with another one that they had on site. They said they could not accept a Hyundai or Kia because they get broken in all the time. Instead, I had to call Roadside Assistance. Issue 4: I called Roadside Assistance and after a 15 minute hold, they said they could send someone onsite, but it could take up to 1.5 hours. I had to leave for my meeting, so I asked if the roadside visit could be scheduled for 4 pm when I was back onsite. They said that would not be possible and I would have to call back. Issue 5: I ended up having to take 3 Ubers throughout the day since I didn't have a working rental car -- $103.44 later. Issue 6: That evening I called Roadside Assistance and after a 20 minute hold, they said they could send someone with a battery starter. Issue 7: Roadside Assistance texted that it would be upwards of 90 minutes to come onsite. Issue 8: Roadside Assistance arrived and tried multiple times to jumpstart the car with a battery starter. Car would not start after multiple attempts. Issue 9: I had to call Roadside Assistance again. After a 20 minute hold, the system transferred me to a live person and I was disconnected. Issue 10: I had to call Roadside Assistance again. After a 20 minute hold, they scheduled a 2nd tow truck to come. I told them that the garage clearance was 6'5". I asked if I could head to Reagan Airport to get a replacement car first, or if I had to wait for the tow. Roadside Assistance said they did not know -- it depends on the staff at Reagan. Issue 11: I received a text from the tow company that it would take 2 hours. Issue 12: I realized that 2 hours would put me past the 11 pm closure at Hertz Reagan Airport, so I wouldn't have the car for my next morning's meetings. I called Hertz Reagan Airport directly to see if I could pick up a car before the tow arrived. No one picked up. Issue 13: I called Roadside Assistance again and after a 20 minute hold, I asked them if I could pick up a car before the tow arrived. They did not know and tried calling Hertz Reagan Airport directly -- no one picked up. They said to just go and take my chances. Issue 14: I had to take an Uber to Hertz Reagan since my rental car didn't work: $45.37. Issue 15: Successful rental car pickup at Hertz Reagan and arrived back at the Westin hotel, *before* the 2nd tow truck arrived. Issue 16: 2nd tow truck arrived, taller than 6'5" in height. They could not enter, but would try a battery jumper instead. Issue 17: Despite me telling Roadside Assistance exactly where the car was located in the garage (P2, Yellow Section, near the Hotel elevator), and telling the tow company the same information, I spent 15 minutes wandering the garage trying to find the tow truck driver with the battery jumper. Final Resolution: Driver was able to jump start the car and I drove it to the surface, where he towed it away. Total resolution time - 9 am discovery; 6 pm re-engaging Roadside Assistance, 12 am successful tow. Most of this could have been avoided if this Westin Hertz location looked out for the customer and swapped cars to begin with.

My experience at the Enterprise location at 2301 Bladensburg Road, NE this morning was extremely…read moredisappointing. I reserved a compact vehicle the night before and informed the representative that I would arrive at 7:30 a.m. when the branch opened. At the time of the reservation, there was no indication that this would present any issues. Upon arrival, however, I was informed by the Enterprise representative, Mr. Danny Calder, that no compact cars were available and that only a Jeep remained on the lot. Although I was told I could take the Jeep at the same rate, I expressed concern regarding the comfort and practicality of driving a much larger vehicle. I also explained that if I was not comfortable with the Jeep, I would return to exchange it for the compact car I originally reserved. Throughout the interaction, Mr. Calder was noticeably nonchalant, impatient, and unprofessional. When I inquired about the 15% discount for rentals over three days--something I was instructed to request when making the reservation--he stated that he would need to cancel and rebook my reservation because it was "booked online." I clarified that I had spoken directly with a representative the night before and had not booked anything online. When he requested my ID and insurance, he handled the documents in a manner that appeared hesitant and uncomfortable, which further contributed to the unprofessional tone. I also asked about the federal government discount that I have consistently received in the past. He initially stated that they "don't do that," which is incorrect, and only applied a 5% discount after I presented my federal government ID badge.Despite having a reservation for an early pickup, I still had to wait for the Jeep to be cleaned, causing additional delays. This undermines the purpose of reserving a vehicle in advance to ensure a timely and efficient pickup. Overall, I am extremely dissatisfied with the lack of professionalism, the failure to honor my reservation, the inadequate discount, and the overall customer service I received. Additionally, Mr. Calder did not assist with adjusting the seat or demonstrating basic vehicle functions--assistance that the Pentagon Police ultimately provided when I arrived at work. These are tasks that should have been addressed at the time of pickup but were not. This experience could have been handled far more effectively, and this location has significant room for improvement. This has been the most disappointing experience I've had with Enterprise. I picked up the vehicle this morning and drove directly to work at the Pentagon. On my way home--only about twelve minutes into the drive--the fuel light came on. It is unacceptable and unprofessional to provide a rental vehicle with virtually no gas. This issue requires immediate attention and corrective action.

I was charged $101.35 to refuel my car. That means that I was charged $7.09 per gallon to refuel. I talked to customer service and they said they refilled 22 gallons which is absolutely impossible as the fuel tank capacity is only 14.3 gallons assuming I drained the tank dry. That means I am being defrauded by Budget and they are filling other cars up with my money. I was promised a free upgrade and when I got to the place to pick up my car in Boston I was told they didn't have any upgraded cars to give me. Instead I got the worst car in the fleet. It had a bad bounce in the back end that vibrated the car at any speed over 60. Frankly, it was dangerous. I was able to trade it for another car in Middleton Pennsylvania. I drove that car for 3 miles and discovered it didn't have USB jacks that worked and cigarette burns in the passenger seat. So I returned that and got a THIRD car. It had an issue that turned off the front radar until it decided to be on and then it would slam on the brakes randomly as I changed lanes. Another dangerous car. I called customer support and they said there is nothing they can do. I believe there is something they can do. 2 out of 3 cars were dangerous, all three were broken. It's not a good look.
