Pick up in Tucson was fine but would have been nice to have a person to ask questions about the vehicle. It was 100% self service. Drop off was good, easy, and complete in 60 seconds.

Complete disaster. They would not let my wife pick up the car. Then when I arrived, they had cancelled my reservation. We never got a car. I want a refund.

The check in was amazing and fast. The car was a Nissan rogue. The car needed an oil change and kept sending warning messages that using the car without changing the oil could be hazardous. The car had no wiper fluid and that was a huge issue as we were driving through a dusty desert in Arizona.

Pick up was inefficient, about 15 people in line and 2 employees at the desk, waited about 1 hour. Car was nice and new. I almost did not get my requested vehicle, because they were out, but one came available at last minute. Drop off was super easy and fast.

I admittedly picked a dealers choice rental. That dealers choice happened to be an EV. I was driving into the mountains and needed a gas car. They charged me an extra 100$ dollars to change the car to a nissan altima. Ive rented from dollar like 15 times and after this stupid upcharge Ill just rent from elsewhere instead

Horrible. Wasn’t clear in the reservation that we’d get an electric car. Was only charged 77% when we got it. Can was smelling of smoke and had scratches all over the place. Chip in the window. Had to park it and get a software update for 1 1/2 hours in order for it to charge. Then had it charge for 12 hours k my to get 80% charge . Aweful. I will never rent and electric car again, and will avoid dollar/thrifty/hertz whenever possible. If they try to stick my with any damage on this car I will see them in court.

When reserving a car I pass on all electric vehicles. Chose the Manager's choice thinking I would get a gas vehicle the type model at Hertz's discretion. How wrong was I? They said they selected ban electric car eeven as I passed on all electric vehicles they had offered and at a cheeper price then I was offered on their Manager's,s choice. We never accepted the car and the credit card company refunded all charges associated with Hertz . Be forwarded when renting any car with this company

We had one issue. On arriving about 9:30p 25 Apr 25 in Tucson, computers were down so the fellow checking us in had to fill out the paperwork by hand. But he was excellent, with a totally positive can-do attitude and everything worked out fine. I didn't get his name, but he was the only agent there at the time and he deserves a 5 star rating for his work. Definitely above and beyond. The car itself, a Mazda CX-50, was also a pleasure

I had to wait 70 minutes to get to an agent with only 3people in front of me! Unacceptable! The agent was unapologetic and almost rude. I reserved a Jetta and ended up with Toyota Corolla with no explanation, and no recourse. The directions for where Avis wanted the car returned were so poorly marked, that took another 25 minutes. I will not be renting a car from Avis in the future.

Customer service at pickup was excellent despite the late hr. Vehicle was comparable to reserved make/model. Return of vehicle was problematic; vehicle was checked and keys returned 10 min before return time, waited 35 min in line and I was told "the system is down" so they couldn't complete return process. I am still waiting for a receipt and return of my deposit. I suppose I have to trust that the proper paperwork will be done "when the system comes back up". I am left feeling stressed and uneasy still.

The type of vehicle I reserved was not available and only option (from the rude representative) was an EV (which I did not want and later discovered had no charging cord) or a 12 passenger van. Was told the car I reserved would be delivered to me the next day and it never was. Worst customer service I've ever experienced traveling and I won't be using Avis in the future.
