Cheap car rentals in Flint
KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Flint
- When driving cheap car rentals in Flint, it is important to follow driving regulations to avoid issues with authority. Drivers must drive on the right of the road as the left lane is strictly for passing. Always stop at stop lines before entering a crosswalk on the nearby side of the intersection. In addition, drivers have to yield the right of way to all vehicles in an intersection or vehicles approaching. Drunk driving is prohibited, and for drivers over 21, the BAC level is .08%. For drivers under 21, the BAC level limit is .02%. Always check with Flint's driving laws before driving Flint's cheap car rentals to avoid steep charges or trouble with the law.
- When driving cheap Flint car rentals, you are likely to encounter numerous cyclists along highways. Flint offers numerous dedicated bike trails in and outside the city limits. It is important to remember that cyclists have equal rights to drivers when using roads. Remember to be mindful and respectful of their rights when driving car rentals in Flint.
- Before getting your Flint cheap car rental, you must buy liability insurance. This is because the traffic rules in Flint require all cars to provide liability coverage. To avoid trouble with traffic authorities, it is recommended that you ensure your Flint car rental is insured.
- A convenient and easy way to move from one place to another in a large city like Flint is by using Flint car rentals. Although public transportation systems, such as Flint Bus Center, Your Ride, and Mass Transportation Authority are well networked and cheaper, they are less flexible and inconvenient compared to having a ride from car rentals in Flint.

With rental cars, you’ll be able to visit Sloan Museum and the historic Crossroads Village, among other places, with ease.

- Flint has a well-networked road system, but since it’s a big city, there is usually a lot of traffic. Navigating through the city roads can be challenging, it’s recommended to rent a car equipped with GPS. Some roads and streets, such as those near residential or marketplaces, may have a number of cyclists and pedestrians who frequently cross the roads. As such, be vigilant while driving through such areas.

Mar 2020
Pros:
Easy pickup.Cons:
I picked up the car in the dark. Once it was light I could see the disgusting condition of the car. I called to complain and they were sorry but no help. I have pictures if anyone is interested. Avis isn’t interested as they never contacted me after. Poor customer service.8.4 Very good
Dec 2019
Pros:
Price was great. Employees behind the counter for pick up and return were extremely pleasant. Loved the roominess of the vehicle.Cons:
The car had a funny smell to it, like smelly gym clothes were left in it. Other companies have you prepay for gas if you’d like ata cheaper price so you can return the car without a full tank of gas. Find it helpful sometimes as you may be running behind and don’t have time to fill up or can’t find a gas station near by. When checking in and out there was only one person helping behind the desk. Would have been nicer if there was two people to keep things moving quicker.10.0 Wonderful

Nov 2019
Pros:
Staff at pickup was very friendly and then staff at drop off was great. I forgot my Kindle in the car and they phoned me right away and kept it for me. Amazing service.Cons:
Was very disappointed to rent a $100 per day car without bluetooth. In 2019 bluetooth should be standard.5.6 Fair
Sep 2019
Pros:
I liked that the pick-up and drop-off was at the terminalCons:
We ordered a premium car--Impala and instead given a full-sized car. Though my paperwork said Impala, since we booked through carRentals..com, Avis wouldn't honor it. The first car that we were given reeked of cigarettes. We then received a Ford Fusion and, although clean, was too small for 5 peopleBudget

Jun 2020
Pros:
Pickup and drop off were find. No issues with that nor the staff, other than when I dropped off and explained of some issues, the attendant did not seem too concerned about it.Cons:
I picked up my car and it was dirty. Garbage in the door, crumbs in the cup holders. Shortly after I picked the car up, the check engine light came on. I attempted to call the 1-800 number on the brochure given to me at pickup. The menu was unable to connect me with a person based on the reason for my call. So....I had a car for 3 days that I didn't really drive because I was unable to get assistance with the issue. When I dropped it off and explained what had happened, the staff just said, "Yeah, you can never really get through on the 800 number." What in the world! If that is the case, then why are customers not given a local number to call? She offered to give me a card to call the manager, but at that point....what was the point in doing that? I told her that I would probably just not use their service in the future. She just said "ok. Sorry for the inconvenience." I was very unimpressed with the service provided to me during my rental with your company.9.2 Wonderful
