First of all dollar wouldn’t honor my same-day reservation confirmed through your site. That’s problem number one. Secondly I was offered an upgrade which was appreciated so I could actually get a car, but I was provided a car that did not have a sufficient charge.Reviewed Dec 23 2024

Was allowed to rent a car past the time that the rental car company was open. Flight coming in was delayed so I hopped on different flight to this location, planning on renting a car to drive back home. Ended up being stranded in JFK for a night as I was never able to rent a car and all other places were booked. Had I known renting a car here wasn't possible I probably wouldn't have made flight arrangements this wayReviewed Jul 2 2024

When we got to the car rental place they said there wasn't any cars, we explained that we booked through Expedia and the last was very rude to us. We then booked through hertz and had brilliant customer service and a lovely car. I'd highly recommend Hertz and will be avoiding dollar.Reviewed Feb 21 2024
