LYON AIRPORT CAR RENTAL REVIEWS

Like: Booking was swift and simple. No hidden fees and clear what you were booking. Explained insurance in a way that was easy to understand.
Dislike: no complaints

Like: Easy to pick up and drop off
Dislike: Car with many scratches No choice for the car in the same category

Bad attitude.

There was no free upgrade offered. I had booked an Opel, but they said it wasn't available and provided a Ford Focus instead. I wasn't satisfied. My family requested a different car, so we switched to a Volvo, which cost more.

The service was very attentive. A very professional car rental company.

The service is very good, but they inform you that the car you booked is no longer available. The available cars require an additional charge.

The provided vehicle had three of the five front wheel bolts missing, which is shocking! The car started shaking on the road because the wheel was about to fall off. Passengers could only discover the cause by leaning out the backseat window. We were driving on an elevated road, and leaning out or a falling wheel could have resulted in fatal consequences. We had to stop on the emergency lane. However, Avis's assistance line, which claims to be available from 7 AM to 12 AM, did not answer after three long waits. In the end, we had no choice but to call the police, and a tow truck dragged the car to a temporary towing company, which also kept us waiting for half an hour. The entire experience was zero stars. Avis had promised a refund because of this incident, but it has been 20 days with no news.

The agent's English was poor and he kept pushing additional insurance. I had to ask my French friend to speak with him in French over the phone to resolve it. Bad service! The car I got was a Toyota Avensis (station wagon), but I couldn't find it in the options so I selected 'Toyota Corolla' instead.

Like: Car fit to my need

Like: Very friendly staff at all levels

Like: Cheap rental but great service and upgrade in the car offered. A bit remote from the terminal (10min free bus drive) but efficient pick up and drop ! Would recommend definitely
Dislike: Didn't prepared for a bus drive but in Lyon it seems now mandatory.

Like: Good pick up
Dislike: Dropping car before time and now discovered they charged me an additional day

Like: All very quick and easy.
Dislike: The deposit money still hasn't been released on my card a week later despite them saying it would be as soon as I returned. Also, would have liked to inspect vehicle with staff before signing.
