Pros: Extremely knowledgeable staff with exceptional customer service. There was a problem with availability that kayak didn’t know about, but they (Hertz) didn’t make it MY problem. They resolved the issue using available resources and even bettered the deal for my trouble.
Cons: Coordination and communication between kayak (the 3rd party) and Hertz would have eliminated the possibility of what could have been a devastating experience for me and my very important family visit to Los Angeles.

Pros: Staff mislead me and told me that liability and damage were included in my prepaid amount. I questioned and he reassured, said it was included and just told me to sign the contract. I was going to use my own insurance but when he said this I thought I wouldn’t need to. He lied. Got charged $168
Cons: Disputed this charge with hertz. Their customer service told me that since I signed I had to pay. Didn’t care that employee mislead & misrepresented what was included when he had me sign the contract. Car was also water damaged and had to change it at the airport. They all acted like it was typical

Do not deliver
Pros: nothing
Cons: I reserved a vehicle n advance for a trip to visit my parents for Thanksgiving. When I arrived , I was told I was on a wait list for a vehicle. I needed to be on the road and had to cancel the reservation and use other means of transportation to see my family for the holiday.

Kayak is awful
Pros: Nothing im disputing the charges since your company screwed up on terms and agreement. I had to be charged separate for an entire rental. I will never use your company again and will be leaving very negative yelp reviews...
Cons: Same as above!!

it was okay.
Pros: I like how fast I was able to get a car and at such a great rate. They were also flexible when I had to extend the rental for one more day.
Cons: The car smelled like the inside of a Casino The staff was not very personable and they did not explain much like if I had to refill the tank or anything like that.

False advertising
Cons: I thought that in placing a reservation I would be reserving a car to be picked up at the time and location I picked. When I arrived at the location, 30 minutes early thinking I can just get the paperwork done then eat breakfast somewhere while I wait until my scheduled time, I was told there was a waiting list because no cars were available. I even said I made a reservation, and was told it isn't a reservation for a car but to lock in the rate. There were two other people ahead of me and one had made a reservation online for 2 hours earlier than i!!! Which means who know how long I would be waited for car that I already paid for?!!? Needless to say I was 2 hours behind schedule in my day, and I canceled my reservation, and went with another company, ended up paying $100 more but will never rent from hertz again.

Hertz does not honor kayaks rate
Cons: What's the point of planning ahead and booking if when you get there for pick up there is no car available. There is no car available at all, not only at this location but all surrounding locations. I was there for over 2hours until finally getting a car. I missed my meetings and had to reschedule. It was a mess.

Ask more questions and look after your money!
Pros: Pick up and drop off were fine, car was ok, just as we expected. We rented a car for one week firs, then we called and extended our rental for 4 more days. But when we dropped off the car we got a receipt with charges for two full weeks. When we asked why, we were told what no matter how many days of the week we used the car, they will charge for a full week anyway, Than my husband asked to get this car back, so we can use it for 3 more days since we paid for it anyway, Herts agents refused , saying our rental is over. We got no car and were charged for it anyway. So watch for your money, ask how much you will be charged and get it in written too!
Cons: Overcharges without warnings or explanation.
