We reserved a van, and received a call the day before stating no vans were available and a Nissan Pathfinder replaced it for no extra charge. I was disappointed because we would be crowded for out drive to Chicago, 2 adults and 4 kids, but we would manage. There was also limited cargo room. Upon picking the SUV up, Kyle assured me he would "take care" of me. I saw the paperwork and I was told not to worry about returning it with a full tank of gas for my inconvenience. Well, the car was filthy dirty with stains on the seats, sterling wheel sticky and crumbs. There was even a game left in the back. Kyle again apologized and said he would talk to his service people. As I am driving home, I couldn't get over the smell. The SMOKE smell that is. On my paperwork, Kyle wrote "no smoking" apparently the people before didn't get that memo. Hertz should invest in some febreeze.
Once we returned the car, but husband talked to Katie, explained our story, and she basically turned a deaf ear. Very disappointing. Young kids running the show, with terrible customer service. Shame on you Hertz. read more
