    Enterprise rental car at Sacramento Airport

    This is the most incompetent car rental agency. I have come across in these United States. I have an aviation company and travel all over the states and without fail Sacramento enterprise or any rental car system is absolutely ridiculous. You have a line of people waiting to go. You have a line of people waiting to come. The only solution is to get an Uber to take you to a different rental car company not affiliated with this

    I booked directly through the Enterprise website and selected a standard compact car. This was my first time picking up a rental from Sacramento. The process was easy. After baggage claim I headed towards the rental car shuttles and the shuttle arrived with a sign that said Rental Car B. Hopped on and exited at the next and only stop which is the rental car station with all the major rental car companies in one building. I checked in a day ahead online and my rental pick-up was fast. The gentleman that helped me let me know he was going to be about 5 minutes and was going to bring my car up at the back. He gave me a white Nissan Altima which at first I thought, "Not the Altima?!" just based on the stereotypes, but after driving it for four days I rather liked it. My flight got delayed so I modified my return time online and it was so simple. I dropped my car off exactly at the time I said I would and the checkout process was so easy and fast. An Enterprise rep came up with an IPad, asked me if I filled the gas tank up, let me know my final total that was being charged to the card and I was on my way! No wait what so ever! The line for the shuttle was short at the time, but if you're flying in or out on a Monday or Friday, I'd say get there early because the line to get on the shuttle when I arrived on Monday was extremely long. I've rented from Enterprise for as long as I can remember and I'm definitely a satisfied customer who will stay loyal to the brand!

    I have rented cars here twice and I have not had any issues. Staff are quick and the line moves pretty fast. This week David helped me and I was able to get a car with the amenities I needed! Be sure to check the car before you drive off. The airport has a shuttle to take you to the rental car area and back.

    I am contemplating becoming a loyalty member of a different car rental agency. This is my second terrible experience with Enterprise. First, we checked in online. Which absolutely did nothing. We still had to go to the counter, show ID and show the same credit card that I entered online. We were the only ones in line and then waited waited waited as Mercedes said "the driver has to bring the car". She was kind enough and actually was more on the ball than others. The line started growing and we were still waiting. Mercedes did help a couple of people and then shouted out to us, she would check on our car. A few minutes later, she came back and said I am so very sorry I had miscommunication with the driver. But I've given you a complementary upgrade and a better car than what you reserved. .... We paid for a luxury car. They advertise it as an Audi or similar. Upgrade was a joke! We got a old Cadillac sedan. Almost 40,000 miles on it dings and scratches all over. I think it is 2 years old and literally should be retired! The car wasn't that clean. Meanwhile a friend of our also here rented from Hertz, a standard SUV and didn't pay for $500 for 5 days that we did! They have a plush Grand Jeep Cherokee for $350 and other friends have a BMW from Avis $400. It would be different if I had an upgrade that I was using and they didn't have the car available. I actually paid for a luxury car. This is not the first time it's happened, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna be the last time because I am moving until Enterprise shows up for the loyal customer! One star for Mercedes for her service as she did the best she could that's all they had. And one for the gentleman who helped us put our luggage in the car. He got a good tip as well. And one star because at least Enterprise did give us a car that runs.

That's complete BS. I booked a full size that had the emerald executive badge on the reservation which grants me access to ANY vehicle in the executive row. They tried charging me double. Thank God I confirmed the price before exiting. It was a complete nightmare experience. I filed a complaint with corporate and will look to get a partial reimbursement when I return the vehicle to them.

After a very fast, very short trip (to visit a friend in hospice) his kindness meant a lot. I have never written a review for a car rental company but this one definitely warranted it, and the next time I need to rent a car, I will absolutely return to Alamo. Thank you so very much!

The vehicle I was given was a Dodge Durango, and unfortunately, it was very dirty and had an unusual smell inside. I didn't make a big deal about it because I was only going to be in town for three days. Later that afternoon, while driving the vehicle, the check-engine light came on and the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. Multiple warning lights and sensors started going off. I turned the vehicle off and restarted it, and everything seemed to be running normally again. However, about 20 minutes later, the same thing happened again. At that point, I didn't feel comfortable continuing to drive the vehicle, so I had to make the drive all the way back to the rental location. Once I arrived, I waited approximately 30 minutes before someone was able to assist me. They eventually switched out the vehicle and gave me another car, which unfortunately was also not very clean. Price-wise, this Hertz location may be a good option, but based on my experience, I would not recommend renting a vehicle from this location. The condition and cleanliness of the vehicles I experienced were disappointing, and the customer service when I returned to exchange the vehicle was also very disappointing. The employee assisting me seemed very moody and acted almost as if I was inconveniencing him by having to exchange a vehicle that was having mechanical issues. I understand that problems can happen with rental vehicles, but what really matters is how a company handles the situation. I was hoping for a little more professionalism and customer care, especially since I was returning the vehicle because of a safety concern. Overall, the price may be good, but based on this experience, I would recommend looking elsewhere if you want a clean, reliable vehicle and better customer service.

A Hertz representative advised me to go to the Sacramento airport location to see whether they had one available. I called the airport location early that morning, but the phone system directed me to leave a message, and no one returned my call. I went to the airport around 5:00 p.m. and politely asked the representative at the counter whether any electric vehicles were available. Instead of answering my question, she immediately told me that I could not rent a vehicle with a debit card and would need a credit card and a valid driver's license. I was confused because I already had a Hertz rental car and was not there to initiate a new rental. I explained that I had been directed by another Hertz office to ask about switching to an electric vehicle. The representative then told me that Hertz locations do not exchange vehicles and that I would not be able to switch cars. While that may be company policy, it was not communicated clearly to me beforehand, and the interaction felt unnecessarily dismissive and judgmental. As a person of color, I also felt that I was being treated differently based on my appearance. I hope Hertz will clarify its policies regarding vehicle exchanges and communicate them consistently to customers. I also encourage the representative at the Sacramento airport location to use more professional and courteous communication, especially when a customer is simply asking for information.

And not a single person looked up, nodded, or acknowledged that a customer had just walked through the door. I eventually walked up to the only available agent and said "rental?" -- because someone had to start the conversation. His response: "Budget or Avis." That was it. That was the whole greeting. It went downhill from there. He asked for my credit card. I told him I had never provided one at Avis before -- I have been a customer for seven years. Instead of engaging with that, he just kept repeating that it was required. No curiosity, no explanation, just repetition. I eventually said I must be stupid. He said he didn't say that. I said it sounded like it. Here is what a thirty-second conversation could have clarified: I am an Avis Preferred member. When you book through your Preferred account, your card is already on file and you do not need to provide one at the counter. I had not linked this reservation to my account -- a simple mistake. One sentence from someone who actually knows the program would have solved everything immediately. We were standing at the Preferred desk. Knowing how Preferred works is literally the job. The car was fine. It existed, it drove, no complaints there. But from the moment I walked in to the moment I walked out, not one person greeted me, smiled at me, or made me feel like anything other than an interruption to their day. Politeness is not a bonus feature. A hello costs nothing. A smile costs nothing. These are the foundation of customer service -- not the extra mile, just the starting line. When that is missing, nothing else matters. 2 stars. The car gets both of them.

He got me a nice Toyota Corolla on moments notice on an incredibly busy Saturday. Another huge plus was that there was m no long line to wait in, unlike Budget (where people were waiting over an hour). Thrifty also didn't require the outrageous $400 deposit that Enterprise wanted.

Decided to post this with the intent to share my experience ON 01DEC2017 and 03DEC2017 with you guys! First off, the transfer between the arriving terminal and "Car Rental Terminal" was extremely smooth. The airport provides free shuttle service to the rental car locations, Please read and make note to take the CAR RENTAL shuttle if you do not want to end up elsewhere. I arrived the the Payless counter a little over an hour before my reservation time. There was no waiting in line I smiled to the agent and greeted him and he did the same. Asked for my name and we started off with a good chat. He asked what was my purpose of travel and how I'd be using the car i was renting. I simply said i was on a small vacation from LA visiting friends in Sacramento. He handed over the papers so i could sing and offered the insurance which i had previously paid for and he took note of that. Handed me my keys and told me where the car was located. It was a bit confusing to spot however we were assisted by another agent outside at the lot. Found the car and drove off. We got a very nice looking Nissan Juke (awesome car) ,no damage almost new and clean inside (little smelly though haha). Returning the car was a breeze too. Pull up they take a quick look, take the keys hand you your paperwork and ask you to check in to the counter and get cleared. Again no line greeted the agent and was acknowledge. Took off with my receipt and was completely happy. There are two shuttle stops outside the Car Rental building (It's all one building for a handful of car rental companies by the way) PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ THE SIGNS THE TWO DIFFERENT SHUTTLE STOPS ARE MEANT TO GO TO TWO SEPARATE TERMINALS. The signs are pretty visible and clearly list the airlines working out of the two terminals.

    DO NOT rent a car from this Budget or Payless, especially this location, under any circumstances. I…read morehave to use them for work as they are the cheapest option. They consistently have a 1 hour+ line. Once, I waited an hour in line for a compact car. I received a mini van instead. In order to swap it out, I had to get back in line for an hour. They tried to insist I take it and said I'd have to wait longer for a car, which I did. The employees consistently have bad attitudes or only one employee working. This last time, I got a car with a cracked windshield. No one check out the vehicle before you leave the lot. I received no receipt once I returned it. I called 7+ times over the course of 10 days to get one and STILL don't have one. I've submitted an online ticket, escalated it over the phone, emailed their document team, etc. Everything they told me to do. They finally sent me a receipt for someone else for different dates, different airports, completely different cars. This company is ridiculous and has wasted my time. DO NOT RENT FROM THEM.
