It's a nice driving car and easily keeps up with traffic on the autobahn. The controls were not totally intuitive and the brakes began squeaking on day 2. This was pretty embarrassing at the gate of a military installation. Stopped by a Europcar car lot and garage and was told that this is normal for ceramic brake pads. It did get better. Overall a good price and experience.

For the high price I am paying, the car is very mediocre. The vehicle also appears to be poorly maintained: warning lights keep blinking, and in freezing temperatures the windshield washer fluid does not work--likely due to a lack of proper antifreeze. Overall, this experience has been absolutely disappointing.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!…read more The employee helping us installed a car seat and adjust the child locks on our rental vehicle. He also started the vehicle because he wanted to show us where the start button was located (not a typical location). Unfortunately, he inadvertently left without giving us the key to the vehicle. Simple mistake but we didn't know this had happened until we arrived at our destination, attempted to turn off the vehicle and a message displayed on the vehicle stating that the key was missing. With a company as large as Hertz, this should not have been a huge problem, right? WRONG. It took 6 days for them to bring a loaner vehicle to us and another 2 days for them to deliver a replacement key. Meanwhile we were completely stranded and everyone we talked to (customer service, roadside assistance, this location, etc) just kept saying "we will look into it" or "we will call you back." I can't imagine what I would have done if I had been stranded with my toddler at a gas station or somewhere without accommodations. At the end of our rental agreement, we returned the vehicle and the key in the exact same condition it was issued to us. The tacked on: 48.52 EUR for fuel in the loaner car (we only drove it to pick up the replacement key) 508 EUR for the key that they lost 37 EUR for delivery of the loaner vehicle (on day 6 of our rental agreement) After several emails to Hertz and over a month of no response, I just received a canned response saying they would only refund the fuel charge.  They claim they can charge me because: "When a customer rents a vehicle, he or she accepts responsibility for the vehicle and its equipment.  If the vehicle is damaged during an accident, the customer will be held responsible and charged the appropriate repair costs." I never took possession of the key yet they want to hold me financially responsible for their employee's actions. I wish I had read the HUNDREDS of reviews on Google and Yelp stating this location was continually defrauding their customers! It is obvious that they have a serious issue with the management at this location and I am appalled the Hertz is willing to put their reputation on the line rather than addressing the issue.

Never rent from this company. I pre-paid for my car 3 weeks ago. I confirmed the rental as asked by…read morethe email they sent me, confirming my arrival date and time. Which I did and the car (automatic, gas car). When I arrived in this foreign country, they claimed they only had an electric car which I did not want and had not reserved and they refused to give me any other car because they said they did not have a single car in their entire garage (they lied- as obviously, there were cars in their garage downstairs). They also claimed I was late- I showed them the email from SIXT saying the time was confirmed, and that I was not late. The woman said there was no manager on site. She only can reach him by phone. I cannot confirm this, but it sounds Very suspicious that the manager could not come out to speak to me. Normally, when a car rental company does not have the car you have reserved in a certain class they would find a car for you regardless of the class of car that's available. They absolutely did not care about the situation they put me in. They canceled my own reservation, returned the money and I was stuck staying at the Frankfurt airport without a car. I will never ever ever ever rent from Sixt again. Not only did they not fulfill their agreed upon contract, they lied to me about not having any other cars in the garage and they really left me in the cold. They did absolutely nothing to fulfill their end of the contract even after I had prepaid close to 400€ dollars three weeks prior. Unbelievable, how they run their business. Luckily, I went to next door to Avis who had a car available to me for a reasonable price.
