San Francisco to Los Angeles

We went to pick up the car at noon, and the receptionist spoke Chinese. She told us that the car we booked was not available and that there were only two Korean cars left in the same class, which were of lower quality. She suggested that we upgrade to a new 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE350 by paying an extra $25. It was quite frustrating, but we had no choice. We ended up paying an additional $175 for 7 days. It felt somewhat like a scam because it’s unlikely you'll get the car you actually booked.

Our flight was delayed, so we picked up the car 2 hours earlier than scheduled. Due to language barriers, we were concerned about being charged for unnecessary insurance, but it turned out to be fine. The car was picked up quickly, but the attitude of the front desk staff could be improved.

The girl at the San Francisco counter was really pushing for insurance, and even called a Chinese staff member to explain it to us. It wasted a lot of our time. Also, both times we chose a two-door car, but they only had four-door cars available at the counter. Quite disappointing.

No Chinese service. They told us there were no cars available and asked us to upgrade for an additional fee. We had originally booked a Ford Edge for four people but were told there were no cars available upon arrival. They didn't even let us check the garage and demanded $530 more to upgrade to a Ford Explorer. Being unfamiliar with the area, we had no choice but to pay. Please, help us get this fee refunded.

You need to wait in a long queue to pick up the car
