Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Extremely easy pick up and drop off. I saw some reviews about fuel, and I noticed my Nissan Kicks had a lagging fuel gauge on the driver's screen as well. I was down 3 bars and it took about 3-5 m... See more

Vehicle was dirty inside and out. Service required lite was on from the time I started it until my return. Windshield washer reservoir was empty.

Smooth Experience

Great experience with Hertz Rental Car. The staff was friendly, the pickup and return were quick, and the car was spotless and reliable. Smooth, easy process from start to finish. I’d definitely rent from Hertz again.

I experienced an issue where

I experienced an issue where, at one point during my rental, none of the sensors were working, and I had to drive approximately 800 miles without cruise control or lane assist. This made the journey quite inconvenient and concerning.

At the pickup location, I asked the staff if I could switch to another vehicle, as I could see that other cars were available. However, my request was refused, and one of the staff members was quite rude in the way she handled the situation.

As a loyal Hertz customer, I was disappointed with this experience. I would appreciate it if you could review my case and consider offering a partial refund or other compensation for the inconvenience. I hope Hertz values my continued loyalty and can help resolve this matter fairly.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
