Luxury SUV

I was very disappointed with my rental. I contacted my local enterprise office four times about the availability of a luxury suv for our trip. Each time I was asked to trust the process but sadly it was a snow job. At pickup time there were no luxury SUV’s available. I was given an uncomfortable GMC I did not want. They acted as if this was okay, even normal. Well it sucked. Enterprise, you can do better.

There was a fee of $150 on a $94 rental that was not disclosed until I went to pick the car up. There needs to truth in pricing. It’s a little late to decide when you are there to pick the car up.

Kayak gave me the wrong address and even city for my rental. I reserved in Asheville but my car was in brevard which was 40 min away. I resolved the issue but the enterprise staff on site were not very creative in their problem solving.

Everything was awesome except the fact that the card we had reserved wasn’t there so when we got ready to leave in the morning, we had to wait a couple of extra hours because they didn’t have the vehicle there. It had to be transported. Other than that. everything was amazing and excellent. The customer service the person who checked us out with it was amazing as well, very friendly knowledgeable.

The guys did not have the car ready even when the flight was delayed 30’ . They said 15-20 minutes but I did not have that time as I had to make an important business meeting. I said I need any car now I don’t care if it’s smaller or bigger , they offered me a bigger car but said I have to pay !! Ridiculous so I had no choice but to paid for an upgrade when they had no car ready at the time of my reservation which was 1:30pm or even 1:50pm. Bad bad experience

Cons:

I paid for a mid sized suv to go on vacation with my 3 friends. I was given a Nissan Kicks which is a sub compact vehicle. It was so small we barely fit our luggage in. Very disappointed. The lady at Hertz didn’t care and said she had nothing else. Will Never use Hertz again. Poor customer service.
