This statement is made to formally document material safety and condition defects regarding a…read morevehicle rented from the Avis location in Costa Mesa. Vehicle: Kia Niro EV Condition at Delivery: Defective safety system and unsanitary interior Upon taking possession of the vehicle, one day later the forward collision avoidance system repeatedly displayed warnings indicating that it was not functioning properly. This system is a primary accident prevention feature. A malfunction of this nature constitutes a significant safety concern for the driver, passengers, and the public. The vehicle is used for rideshare purposes and also transports my minor child, increasing the seriousness of this defect. Additionally, the vehicle was delivered in an unsanitary condition. The interior emitted a strong odor consistent with urine and was visibly unclean. The condition required immediate remediation. I incurred 120 dollars out of pocket for a semi detailing service in order to make the vehicle sanitary and usable. Notice and Opportunity to Cure: I contacted Avis customer service, Uber, and the Costa Mesa Avis location to report these issues and request corrective action, including a safe replacement vehicle or appropriate remedy. No meaningful resolution has been provided. This review serves as contemporaneous documentation of the vehicle's condition, the reported safety defect, the financial damages incurred, and the lack of corrective response after notice. Rental vehicles should be delivered with fully operational safety systems and in sanitary condition consistent with basic consumer protection standards.

I had never had this happen to me. I was stuck wondering, what do I do? I'm in southern California, I have big plans, and no car. I tried another area, but they were not helpful, but someone saw my distress and said, "I can help you." He made a phone call and told me to wait outside and someone would pick me up and take me to a place. I figured it would be some random place with the worst broken down cars. I was dropped off at a small office minutes from the airport. I walked in and the person there was AMAZING! He was friendly, took my information, and within minutes, I was driving out in a nice medium size car. I worried that the return process would cause a problem. I guess, I was just waiting for the other foot to drop. Could it really be this great? The answer is YES! It truly was. No complaints at all. I will recommend this place and will be back next time I'm in California. ....... .. . .. ..

Never do business at this Hertz…read more -When arriving for my reservation the 1st thing that was said is "I thought we moved your reservation to another location", but it wasn't. -Next they said they don't have a car for me & that their manager called me to let them know, but they hadn't. -Got the employee's name, the manager's biz card, & told them I was stepping outside to call customer support while waiting for a car. Not a minute late, they suddenly had a car for me that they were "holding" it aside for an account. Not "reserved", "holding" basically just in case. -I reserved a Mid-Size SUV, they gave me a Compact SUV (Chevy Trax). When I asked if that was at or above the class I reserved, they said it was a free upgrade & quoted $200 more total if they charged me the correct price for the car they gave me. -My reservation was for 6-days at $186, they changed it to $212 on the contract for my "free upgrade" without saying anything. Especially ironic since they gave me a lower class car that should have led to them lowering the price of my rental. -When returning the car, a customer in front of me was picking up his reservation & a different employee told them, "I thought we moved your reservation to another location". Clearly a shared & dishonest practice among staff when not able to fulfill reservations. -It was really busy so that same employee announced "Anyone who's returning can just drop the keys w/ me & you'll get an emailed receipt", so I did that. Unfortunately they didn't close my rental out til 3 day later so I was over charged. Plus they added a late fee. -After 2 hrs of hold time & conversation with their support team, they finally agreed to refund me the overages & lower the price of the rental since I was actually downgraded from my reservation, not given a free upgrade. How can one rental experience include this much dishonesty & mistakes made by staff? Cause it's this location's brand. It's what they do, it's their operational standard & culture.

I've never encounter this lack of compassion while waiting (less than 5 or 10 minute wait) for my transactions. These 2 educated and trained individuals are efficient,courteous and respectful, and very business orientated. i say this because for at least the past several months i have witnessed customers come in and drive out with there rental cars and trucks ,with smiley faces. So please try and remove your ego from this equation ,perhaps you wont be a pathetic troll (smiles). Common sense communicate says don't enter place's of Business wearing your pathetic Egos and demanding that protocols be discarded,then venting your unprofessional and Ego attitude towards these employees ! what a bummer ,than you dont have an outlet to release your ego. remember "Attitude is key to most business transactions okay".

Horrible customer service and unprofessional management. The truck I reserved online was not…read moreactually available. I recommend calling ahead to confirm they really have the vehicle listed online before wasting your time. The manager called and said they only had a van available instead of the truck I reserved, even though it was supposedly the same price. When I went in, there was an issue with my bank verifying the charge, so I had them clear it and tried again. After that, the manager suddenly claimed the issue was my credit and refused to help further. He simply told me to "read the fine print" instead of offering any customer support or solutions. I ended up going to U-Haul afterward and had a completely different experience. No credit check, great customer service, and their online reservation system was easy to use. They also did not place a $150 hold on my card and only charged me for the estimate. Best of all, there were no surprise upcharges. Do not rent moving trucks from Budget Truck Rental. U-Haul is definitely the better option.
