I was able to make a reservation for a car that did not exist. Ridiculous. Had to use another provider who had cars available 3 hours later. Customer service was also far more accommodating. I had two little kids & all our luggage. Had to Uber back to where we had been staying, then back later to get available car with other provider. Could have saved a lot of time & money in advance if I had just known there were not going to be any cars. Never again.

Counter man was helpful and friendly. The issue is corporate! I had a confirmed reservation as did all eight people in line in front of me. The first two of us got cars. All the rest of us were told there were no cars available. While I was there, a truck showed up from Detroit to haul away cars from the Kalamazoo fleet, decimating it, and I’m sure the same thing had happened previously, causing the lack of cars. BAD CORPORATE DECISION! If I can’t count on a reservation being honored, I’ll never rely on that company again.
