Smooth communication and quick processing.

I rented a Highlander. However, after picking up the car, I found that both the front and rear cigarette lighters were not working, so I couldn't use the GPS. I had to return to Hertz and they said they were out of Highlanders and offered me a car called Captiva instead. After driving for about twelve or thirteen days, I went to the Hertz office in Dunedin to switch back to a Highlander because my car needed maintenance. Again, they told me there were no Highlanders available but said they could lower my rental price because the car I was driving was a lower-tier model than the Highlander. Well, they only mentioned this now. At the end of my trip, when I returned the car in the local office at around 5:00 PM and specifically requested an adjustment in the rental price, the staff said the manager had already left and I would have to wait until the next day for a response. But I was flying out that night. I waited for two or three more days without any reply, so I emailed Hertz's customer service. After several days, they responded, saying they could only reduce the price by 100 NZD including tax, even though the price difference on their website for the same season was 285 NZD. After many email exchanges, they finally said there's no further adjustment that could be made. This is Hertz's service for you. I thought choosing Hertz would mean better service, but clearly not. The staff at the pickup location was dishonest.

Earlier reviews mentioned that Hertz cars had mileage under 20,000 kilometers, but our car had over 40,000 kilometers. Overall, the pick-up and return procedures were quick and straightforward. No other significant issues.

They carefully check the driver's license and notarized documents, making the procedures quick and convenient. Important matters are specially emphasized. The car had been driven for 70,000 kilometers and had noticeable scratches on one side that hadn't been repaired, so it's hard to evaluate.

Good car condition, new.
