Pickup truck

KAYAK
The individual that initiated the contract when I picked up the truck was awesome, efficient and polite. Unfortunately, after driving the truck for 1 hour, the engine light came on. We called where we had picked up the truck and they didn't quite know what to do and we called a Hertz rental where we were headed and they didn't quite know what to do. We were told they would call us back as soon as they got a hold of someone who knew. No one ever called. It was very frustrating and upsetting. When I took the truck back and told them no one really seemed to care. Thank God, after a while, the engine light did not come on anymore. When we returned the truck and informed the manager of Hertz Rental she seemed nonchalant and just said that shouldn't have happened because it only has a little over 3,000 miles on it. I was shocked and surprised.

I called Hertz multiple times to cancel my reservation, I even have an email confirming it is canceled. I was told I would receive a refund in 10 business days. I have still not recevied it.

They over charged me and there’s nearly no way to fix it. So many hidden charges!

Liked quick pickup - bus was waiting when walked up - otherwise would have taken Avis Better - only 3 cars available upon pickup - settled for large minivan none of choices were good. Checkout at gate - attendant could not figure it out - very frustrating - had to go back to counter - they added extra charges that I needed to get taken off - still not sure that I was not overcharged. Return in Charleston was frustrating - no clear signs indicating how to get to rental return - navigation couldn't figure it out with the construction - very long walk with bags dragging to get to terminal - Bad Experience I wished I had stuck with Avis

Staff was not friendly or accommodating. She really didn’t explain anything including a $200 charge that was placed on my account.

the online app to streamline checkout never worked, but the staff were very friendly and helpful, offsetting some of that stress before pick up
