I read the rental policy several times. They require us to return the car with a full tank to avoid extra charges. However, the rental company imposed a prepayment for fuel when they authorized the card. No matter if you return the car with a full tank, they still charge this prepayment. Now, I'm trying to get this money back from the rental company, but it's been a month with no progress. Can’t the rental platform refund me first? Both the rental company and the rental platform refuse to reimburse me?

1. No Chinese service; 2. The Black customer service agent naggingly recommended a $100+ one-time toll pass. This is a rip-off. Highways in the US are not tolled; when I took a bus from Los Angeles to San Francisco a few years back, I only paid $2.5. I rented a car to return to Los Angeles and didn't pay any tolls. This $105 card is non-refundable if not fully used, don't fall for it! 3. The airport shuttle bus service is terrible! It took me 4 minutes to return the car, and when I went out with the ticket to the airport shuttle, the first dedicated shuttle driver was rude and didn't let us board, asking us to wait for the next one. We waited almost an hour for a shuttle, which only allowed five people to board, and we had to squeeze on as our flight was about to take off. During the wait, we saw the neighboring rental company had 3-4 minute shuttle intervals, with over a dozen shuttles passing, while we had none.

Average service, had to queue to pick up the car, and you get whatever they give you without any options, much worse compared to National.

Renting and returning the car was very convenient. The car was in good condition and performed well over 3000 kilometers with no issues. Although there were additional insurance sales pitches, I declined them. There are a few things I was not satisfied with: 1. There were very few models in the same category. I couldn't find the Nissan brand I booked and had only two similar cars to choose from. 2. The child safety seat rental was too expensive, $78 for 15 days, much higher than the $30-50 quote I got from customer service earlier. This type of pricing should be clearly disclosed in writing beforehand.

Once we had a situation with low brake fluid. We purchased roadside assistance, which was great. They brought another car and towed away the one with the issue.
