★☆☆☆☆ I hired a vehicle from Europcar which broke down on the second day of an eleven-day rental and after 150.1 miles. The breakdown was entirely outside my control. The vehicle became unusable, I was left without transport, and it took almost 24 hours for the vehicle to be recovered. I also had to arrange for someone to remain available for an entire day waiting for collection. Initially, the local branch acknowledged the inconvenience caused and even confirmed that rental days would be credited due to the issue. There was no suggestion whatsoever that I had done anything wrong. However, I was later contacted by Europcar's damage and recoveries team and informed that I would be charged for the AA recovery call-out resulting from the breakdown. What I find most concerning is that Europcar has been unable to provide any evidence that I caused the breakdown, any evidence identifying what actually failed on the vehicle, or any evidence showing that the recovery was required due to anything other than a mechanical issue with their own vehicle. Their position appears to be that because the vehicle happened to break down whilst it was in my possession, I should bear the recovery costs. By that logic, Europcar accepts no responsibility for the maintenance, wear and tear, reliability or mechanical condition of its own fleet and can simply pass those costs on to whichever customer happens to be renting the vehicle when a fault occurs. A pre-rental inspection does not prove a vehicle is free from latent mechanical defects. The fact remains that the vehicle failed almost immediately after being supplied. As a member of the BVRLA, Europcar is required to provide safe and roadworthy vehicles and to ensure charges are assessed in a transparent manner with clear justification. The BVRLA Code of Conduct also states that customers should be provided with justification and supporting evidence for charges raised against them. In my case, despite repeated requests, no evidence has been produced showing that I caused the issue. The matter is now being escalated through the BVRLA dispute resolution process. I have also instructed solicitors to deal with the matter and recover the money that has been taken from me with no justification and without authorisation. Very disappointing experience. I would strongly advise anyone considering hiring from Europcar not to do so.

Yes, the service at Lotus Car Rental in Iceland was excellent. I just returned from a self-drive trip in Iceland the day before yesterday. I rented a Toyota Yaris Cross 4x4 with the Platinum insurance package. When I went to pick up the car via the self-service option on September 13th, I wasn’t sure how to contact the car’s Wi-Fi to my phone or how to mirror Google Maps from my phone onto the car’s large display screen. A male staff member sitting at the first desk on the left (please forgive me for forgetting his name) was incredibly helpful and attentive; he got everything connected for me and answered my questions, giving me the peace of mind I needed for my road trip. Later, when I noticed a crack in the windshield, I contacted their customer service team; Martin promptly addressed my concerns and reassured me so I could continue driving without worry. Another issue arose when I went to return the car: a male staff member pointed to his computer screen and claimed I owed an unpaid parking fee to Parka. After he specified the location, I felt something was wrong because I distinctly remembered it paying twice at that particular lot-a fact backed up by the records on my phone. I explained the situation to him, and he advised me to pay the fine so I wouldn’t miss my flight and then sort it out with Parka later; I followed his advice. After returning to the US, I contacted Parka and received an email from them this morning confirming the issue had been resolved. They have notified Lotus Car Rental to refund the incorrectly charged fine, and I am confident I will receive the money soon, as they are an honest company.
