Seattle

There was a last-minute car change. The counter said that the reserved car was unavailable and offered an upgrade. After agreeing, went to the parking lot and found no car in the designated space. Asked a staff member and was told there were no cars left. They switched to another car and said it was the only one available, no other options. Very frustrating.

Constantly pushing me to buy insurance and charging various fees

They did not provide the reserved vehicle and took advantage of our lack of English skills to overcharge us. Even though we refueled the car and confirmed it with the inspection agent, we were still charged an extra $20 for supposedly not refueling it. After complaining to the manager, the receipt was corrected. The manager said we would be refunded, but since it was a credit card authorization, we have to wait for the billing cycle to know if we were really refunded.

There are additional fees.

When we arrived at the store, there were no cars available in the group we had booked. Without asking, they upgraded us to a different model that was in a higher category, and the price doubled. After negotiating, they finally compromised, and we had to choose a model that cost twice as much. They said it was the cheapest model they had available, and there were no other options. Our original estimated cost was $300, but it ended up being over $540. If we hadn't negotiated, the quote they initially gave us was $750, which was really frustrating.
