As a proud Emerald Club member with National Car Rental, I feel compelled to recognize an…read moreexceptional professional who consistently elevates the customer experience "Jose at the LaGuardia Airport location". Jose embodies what world class service should look like. Each and every time I rent, he operates with a level of efficiency, precision, and professionalism that is both rare and refreshing. As a CEO, I deeply value individuals who understand that excellence is not occasional it is a standard. Jose delivers on that standard without fail. He anticipates needs before they are expressed, resolves matters with speed and clarity, and treats every interaction with a level of respect and care that reflects true pride in his work. His consistency is what sets him apart. In an industry where service can vary, Jose is a constant, reliable, sharp, and customer focused. Quite simply, Jose is one of the primary reasons I remain exclusively loyal to National. He is not just an employee; he is a strategic asset to the brand and a model of what frontline leadership should look like. Upper management should take note professionals like Jose are not just enhancing the customer experience, they are driving brand loyalty at the highest level.

Not…read moreonly is it super convenient with robust options, but the service we've received at the location has always been amazing. From those who help us select the right vehicle every time, to the friendly folks at the booth, to the team at vehicle return--everyone operates with an affable professionalism that's hard to find these days. And just want to send a special shout out to Marilyn, who truly goes above and beyond every time we're lucky enough to encounter her. She just radiates kindness and she always goes the extra mile to make sure we're in the perfect vehicle for whatever our needs are at the time. The last time I rented, Marilyn was headed off for her break, and she literally turned around and came back to help me once she saw me walk in. That's the kind of service that's really special, and the reason why we're so glad to have National at LGA as our home base!

On Tuesday, April 21, 2026, at approximately 4:00 PM on Broadway in Elmhurst, traffic was stopped at a red light. I was attempting to parallel park along the curb--with a vehicle behind me even offering guidance on how to maneuver--when your company driver, who was stopped directly behind me, began honking his horn repeatedly while the light was still red. When the light turned green, I pulled away and abandoned my attempt to park--turning into St. James Street--specifically to allow your company driver to pass. However, as he continued to follow me, he still did not stop honking his horn aggressively from behind. Consequently, I pulled over to the side to let your company vehicle pass, and I took a photograph of the vehicle--as shown in the attached image--to inform your company that you should provide training and a stern warning to your employee regarding the importance of courtesy and proper driving etiquette. Thank you very much.

A few days later I got a call saying I was being charged for an extra day because the return hadn't been logged until the following day. I confirmed that I returned the car on time, and the representative was pleasant and removed the extra charge without any issues.

I showed up early but I was standing and waiting for my car along with 10-15 other people who were also waiting. I got the car and left the premises at 7 PM. I returned it at 7:25 PM and was still charged a late fee (there is a 29 minute grace period which should have been applied). I don't know what kind of business does not log the exact time someone picked up a car but this is borderline fraudulent. 2. Fuel fraud: When I picked up the car the fuel mileage was around 270-280 miles. I don't remember the exact number but assumed that they would have this logged somewhere - they did not. I specifically refueled and returned the car with around 290 miles left because I didn't want them to charge a fee. They charged an 80$ fee for refueling. I don't know what kind of business does not log the exact fuel level on the receipt at the time of pickup. Seems very convenient on there end. 3. Horrible customer service: I can't reach out to anyone at the airport to talk about this! There was a co-manager who was really nice and offered a 40$ rebate for the inconvenience and I'm trying to reach out to her to talk about this. But whenever I call LGA Avis, they just redirect me to their call center and the call center cannot direct me to their manager?? How am I supposed to talk with the manager? I live in Manhattan and this is in Queens?! I obviously don't have evidence of when I left the premises and what the level of mileage was because I assumed, as a smart business, Avis would have a record of this. But now im stuck having to call multiple times and file a dispute with my bank. Except for the nice co-manager, this was, excuse me for my language, an absolute shit show. Absolutely recommend staying away and you are more a than welcome to contact me with questions

I have been outside for nearly 45 minutes now, and between my torn knee and this cold weather, myself and many other paying customers are upset. We were told after one shuttle was full that another would come quickly, but judging off of their time value this would be another 45 minutes. I am tired, $600 broker, and confused about this lackluster service. After making it to the kiosk, I have learned that this location is severely overworked and understaffed. There are two attendants who are accountable for nearly 50+ customers. The promise of the preferred line (which I am a member of) was reduced to us waiting 20 more minutes once inside. I realize that this is not an individual issue, but a structural issue. AVIS on Bowery needs to focus on having staff for the entire day, so a travesty like this won't ensue again.

I was totally shocked as I needed one and it was a holiday weekend and here I was without a car. I tried another Car Rental company with no success. I was talking to another passenger and he told me to try Sixt as he had used them and found them very good. I do a lot of traveling but I had never heard of them. So I got a shuttle to their place of business hoping against all odds that they could help me. I got to the counter and got speaking to a young man called James who told me he wasn't sure if he had a car but he would see what he could do. Fifteen minutes later James came back with a smile on his face and a car for me. I couldn't believe my luck and thanked the heavens for this young man. James was so polite and understanding and went the extra yard to help me that day. I do a lot of traveling and from now on I will use Sixt all the time, I also have told all my friends and coworkers to try Sixt as well. So again thank you James and Sixt for going the extra mile and helping a tired old Irish man.

Despite some traffic along the way, we made it home in a little over five hours. This afternoon, we returned the vehicle to the LaGuardia Airport location. We were initially told that our receipt would be emailed to us, but for some reason, we did not receive it right away. Fortunately, Kathy, who was working behind the counter this afternoon, was very helpful. She assured us not to worry and kindly printed a copy of the receipt to ensure everything was in order. As it turned out, shortly after we left the location, the emailed receipt arrived as promised. Thanks to Kathy's professionalism and excellent customer service, the return process was smooth and stress-free. It was a pleasant experience, and I would gladly return to this location to rent a car again in the future.

I have observed a systematic pattern where high-end vehicles are removed from the designated member zone and restricted exclusively to paid 'Upgrades.' In my previous visits, I have confirmed that instead of placing high-end vehicles in the President's Circle area, this location consistently stocks only low-end, economic vehicles in that zone, while higher-category inventory is hidden to force additional sales at the counter. I have visited several times just to observe, and seeing that my status is not respected, I have chosen to rent with Avis, where I am also a President's Club member. It is regrettable that you would rather lose valuable customers than stop manipulating prices to force paid 'Upgrades.' Furthermore, the quality of service is inconsistent and heavily dependent on the staff on duty; the treatment and transparency are noticeably better during the morning hours. I am not asking for a favor--I am demanding that you properly stock the President's Circle area with appropriate, high-end vehicles and stop the practice of withholding them. I expect this location to honor the loyalty benefits of the program.
