KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in San Fernando

  • San Fernando is known for its many historical sites and unique foods, and driving San Fernando car rentals is the best way for maximum exploration. Again, you can drive to tourist attractions far away, where public transport can’t access. When driving a rental car, you can visit Chino Hills State Park, about 55 miles southeast of the city, Ventura Botanical Gardens, approximately 50 miles west, and around 20 miles northwest of Mount Pinos.
  • If you land at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), you'll find several car rental agencies at the arrivals level near the baggage claim area. These rental agencies include Hertz, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, Sixt, Budget, and National. The airport provides free shuttle services that operate every 5 to 10 minutes to connect passengers from the terminals to the car rental offices. Expect to find a vast collection of car rental types, depending on your preference.
  • Driving in San Fernando is thrilling because the roads are in excellent condition, and the drive along the mountains is breathtaking. However, be keen on the road when driving car rentals in San Fernando because the scenic views are attractive to the eyes. In addition, most streets along the mountain drive are narrow. For this reason, maintain the speed limit and use quality driving skills when navigating the turns and curves.
  • You can experience traffic when driving car rentals in San Fernando, especially in the morning and evening rush hours. Road congestion mainly occurs between 6 am and 9 am and 3 pm and 6 pm, and the most affected road is I-5. You can wait to drive after the rush hours or begin your journey earlier to avoid delays. Driving rental cars during winter can be difficult because roads are covered in snow. So, ensure your headlights are on to increase visibility and drive slowly because roads are slippery.

They did have a vehicle for me, BUT it was a fully electric vehicle that they said was all that they had in my price range. The last time I rented from this particular Hertz, he gave me a complimentary upgrade just to be nice. But this person, Alfredo, kept shoving the key at me and started my paperwork even though I'd never used a fully electric vehicle before. Here's how it went. You have to drive WAY out of your way and wait in line with other cars (which takes about 30-60 minutes) to charge your car (which takes another 1-2 hours, it's very slow) and while your charging your car, other people stare you down as if to say "Are you done yet?" In general, there are WAY too many electric vehicles than there are charging stations and when you get there very few work. And even swiping your card may not work. I was a single woman on a long trip. Being stranded in the middle of the desert with no way to recharge was not an option. Clearly Hertz just cares about the numbers than my safety.

Pros:

Staff was friendly, but overworked. The car I reserved was available, which I appreciated.

Cons:

There was a long line and only one person working at the desk. The car smelled like mildew pretty strongly. There was a cleanliness seal on the car, but the person who recorded the condition of the car got inside to pull it forward, defeating the purpose of the seal.

7.2 Good

Cons:

Car was not clean when picked up. Had less than a half tank of gas. Google says business opens at 8 but we had to wait until 9 before anybody showed up for drop off.
