Car had a spare on it. Something terribly wrong with transmission. Car would lurch/ start shaking so bad that I felt like I’d lose control of the vehicle.

The pickup was a little hard bc there was no one to show me where the car was and the lot was blocked off and difficult to get out of. But the car itself was great. A little pricey.

Be prepared to wait in line for Budget in ABQ -- there's usually a single staffer working the counter for three rental companies. We were 5th in line when we got there on this past trip and it took about an hour to get our car. Now the price can't be beat and once you have your car all is good; you just need to be prepared for what you're walking into

they changed the car make at the pick up-theone I got was a trimmed version and the 4motion was missing the rotary dial to engage in snow mode-and the manual in the glove compartment was for a different model wurth such a dial, so no use of it-without snow mode we had to cancel some plans

The customer service by phone was not helpful and, in fact, frustrating. It was like dealing with a robot. However, the on the ground agents in Albuquerque were very helpful and friendly.

Hertz lied, we went all the way to the airport to pick up our confirmed rental and they would not honor the confirmation! They told us that even though we made a reservation and had a confirmation number they had rented our car to someone else so they were out of cars.

Car was prepaid, yet I still had to wait 30 minutes in line in order to get the automobile. Then there was rather intense pressure to pre-pay fuel, buy more insurance, and the like--just so Hertz can generate more money.
