KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Dearborn

  • Kindly review the minimum age adopted by most cheap car rentals in Dearborn before you could decide to rent your car. For most Dearborn car rentals, you will have to be 25 to access their car rentals. However, a few would allow you to rent a car at the minimum age of 18, provided you accept the terms imposed on young drivers. According to these terms, young renters aged 18 to 24 have to pay the daily young driver’s surcharge before they can be issued their car rental keys. Your reviews should also reveal that young drivers are restricted to certain types, models, and classes of cars.
  • If you plan to rent a car for your roads with your kids in Dearborn, kindly consider the Dearborn’s Child Passenger Safety Laws. According to these laws, your kids under 8 years old or 4 feet-9 inches tall must travel in age, height, and weight-appropriate rear or booster seat in the front of your rented car from the cheap car rentals in Dearborn. Kids aged above 8 and under 13 should be secured by a car seat’s safety belt in the back of the car. Only those aged above 13 are allowed to use the front seat, provided they wear the car’s seat safety belt.
  • Before renting your car from cheap car rentals in Dearborn as a Person with Reduced Mobility (PRM), analyze some of Dearborn car rentals’ amenities to determine the ones with the most PRM-friendly extras. Some popular Dearborn Car rentals like Avis, Hertz, and Enterprise would offer the best PRM-friendly amenities. These amenities include a GPS navigation system, surcharged surrogate drivers, left-foot accelerators, reduced-effort braking systems, adaptive electronic controls, and pedal and steering wheel extenders.
  • Car rentals in Dearborn are the ultimate way to have flexibility during your trip. You can conveniently travel to and from attractions in the region, whether it be the Henry Ford Museum or Greenfield Village. Having your own vehicle also provides you with the freedom to explore nearby cities, such as Detroit or Ann Arbor. Enjoy a day in nature by visiting Huron Meadows Metropark, a scenic area that is just a 45min drive from Dearborn.
  • If you’re interested in Dearborn car rentals, you can pick one up directly from Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport. Simply head to the rental car center, which can be reached by following the signs for Ground Transportation from the baggage claim. You will eventually arrive at a bus stop for a complimentary shuttle that will bring you to the Rental Car Campus. There are several different companies located here, such as Alamo, Budget, and Enterprise.
  • Dearborn is a large city with many winding streets, so navigating the area can be complex for visitors. An easy way to prevent yourself from getting lost is to add a GPS system to your rental car. The Detroit region is also known for having many cars and pedestrians on the street, so always be on the lookout to prevent yourself from getting into a collision.
  • The city oftentimes has heavy traffic during rush hour, particularly on highways 39, 75, 85, and 94. If you don’t want to get stuck in congestion, try to avoid driving on these roads between the hours of 8am and 9:30am and 5pm and 6:30pm, as this is when many locals drive to and from work. This region can also have a lot of snow and ice during the winter months, so make sure to drive slower than normal if this is the case. You will want to make sure that your car rental in Dearborn is outfitted with the proper equipment for driving in this weather.

Pros:

Staff was very friendly and helpful and did their best to make the whole process as smooth and efficient as possible.

Cons:

Seemed like they were a little bit understaffed. It was very busy at both pick-up and drop-off and it took quite a bit of time to get through the line. However, that is not a reflection of the staff there - they were very courteous and helpful and did their best to get through people quickly, I think they were just sometimes overwhelmed.

KAYAK

Cons:

The car provided could of been in better maintenance as required an oil change within 24 hours of rental pickup and brakes were sluggish. Tried to exchange car at another enterprise but was told I was responsible for all maintenance as car was in my presence as I didn’t purchase the additional insurance. I am not new to renting with enterprise, I rent with them all the time through work, but after this experience it may change. So I tried calling the 855 # enterprise to ask where to get oil change — no answer after 4 tries. So anyway went ahead and found somewhere to get oil changed and check all fluids.

Pros:

Hertz staff are nice and on the ball as usual.

Cons:

This and my last Hertz rental were terrible cars. Both car interiors were dirty and clearly had been recently smoked in despite Hertz policy of non-smoking. The previous one's smell gave my wife a headache each day we were in it. The full-size Nissan I just rented which had exterior scratches everywhere had 44,000 miles on it. Shockingly, it drove like it had 144K on it! The list of squeaks, rattles, and mechanical things is too long to list here. I'm not saying the car is unsafe, but it drove like an old jalopy. Actually, it was kind of unsafe because when you floor it to accelerate onto the freeway it will NOT upshift. So, to make it go faster, I had to lift my foot up off of the accelerator to make it shift up to the next gear and then push again! LOL!

Pros:

Staff was rude, refuse to listen to customer and was very unsympathetic to the situation on hand.

Cons:

Will not acknowledge the entire transaction citing corporate policy about using same credit card for both the on line and in the store process . I produced the card and told the staff that the issuing bank had replaced the number with a new one after I made the reservation . Gave the employee both cards and my ID along with the service number to citicards to verify, but the gentleman refused to give me the car as a "pre paid " customer and said I can forget my on line transaction and rent the same vehicle as a walk in customer for double the price . I will never go back to this business ever again ... Will make sure to let everyone know my experience as well.

Pros:

It was a nice car and in good condition. Good on gas - it was exactly what I had asked for and no one tried to talk me into something I didn't want.

Cons:

The people were fine...Christine was really good, but I had to wait over 30 minutes to return my car - there was only one person ahead of me - but Christine was the only employee and she was left to do everything by herself. She had to clean the cars, check cars in and out and answer the phone - which rang constantly! I made sure I arrived about 45 minutes before I had to turn my car in but by the time she was able to wait on me I barely got checked in before my time was up!

I didn't even get a vehicle. I called a head of time, your CRS people Said they had cars. I got to the office and 6 people ahead of me. My turn and no cars available, don't take my visa/debit card anyway and want a 500 deposit. So I need my refund back of $44 for my deposit. I went to enterprise and got a nice car for the day. They take debt cards and only a $300 deposit.
