This Review is in regards to my recent rental experience at the Albany Colonie Center location. On 7/22 I picked up my rental from that location it was for a full size SUV the agent gave me a 2020 Pathfinder. The rental was a one way with a return location of Charlotte North Carolina. On 7/25 I started my trip home at 10:00am and 60 miles north of Harrisburg PA the tire went flat and I had to pull off the highway. I called Roadside assistance And after sitting on hold for 30 minutes finally reached an agent and was advised they put in the request and would send a text with ETA. I waited 30 more minutes my husband was calling for me as well from agent to agent 4 1/2 hours later the roadside arrived and put the spare on which happened to be a donut. I could not continue another 600 miles on a donut so once again both myself since I was traveling alone and my husband who was home and concerned and calling on my behalf called Avis to get a replacement vehicle both of us were told no similar vehicles were found Near my location and since the car was drive-able nothing could be done! The car was not drive able it was a full size suv with a donut! I made my way to Harrisburg and finally found a shop that had an in stock tire that I had to pay for by this time it was 5:00 and I was finally back on the road. The tire that went flat had previously been plugged by the Albany location and was not fit for a trip of this length additionally the tire had wires showing on the inside of the tire. I could have been killed should that tire of blown on the highway. Albany was aware of the bad tire and I found a slip for service on that tire on 7/19 three days before my rental! So as a woman traveling alone 900 miles they gave me a vehicle that was unsafe and should have been properly fixed they took shortcuts and chose to leave a bad tire on that car. I sat on the side of the road for hours and could have. Been seriously injured because of their unsafe practices. I am requesting this be addressed immediately and I request a full refund for this rental. My rental was to end on Tuesday 7/28 I returned the car on Sunday 7/26 the moment the Avis store opened to get rid of it. Even that agent made notes on the tire because he looked at it (I made sure to turn in the bad tire with the rental so I placed it in the back) and was appalled by its wear and damage. I don't know how this could an acceptable practice and I am frustrated by the lack of care for customer safety. There are Copious notes in the system with regard to this entire situation. This was the worst experience read more
