1. There was no inspection when picking up the car. There were two paint damages and large scratches on the display screen. I have sent photos to the customer service.
2. I had to pay over 400 CAD additionally at pickup. The receipt shows it as a charge rather than a deposit, and I am unsure what I was charged for. The staff's English was not clear, so I couldn't understand them.
3. I haven't received a refund for this charge yet, so I can't make a final judgment.
4. The actual car delivered was a Kia Cerato SUV, which isn't listed on the platform.
Fue desalentador cuanto menos, por no decir frustrante. Alquilamos un coche Tesla con mucha ilusión porque queríamos probarlo. Al llegar el coche no estaba disponible. Nos dijeron que el usuario anterior no había devuelto la llave, pero que en 20 minutos la tendríamos. Decidimos esperar. El tiempo pasaba, el coche ni siquiera estaba allí (eso nos hace pensar que mintieron). Al final decidimos coger otro coche por no retrasar más el viaje. Tardamos 1 hora finalmente en salir de allí y nos llevamos un coche que nos desagradó enormemente, por no decir que era de combustible y gastamos el doble, no tenían tampoco ningún eléctrico disponible. Un fiasco!
When picking up the car, the fuel tank was not full. The display showed a range of 758 kilometers. When returning at the airport with a full tank, it showed a range of 800 kilometers. The car's exterior was not cleaned, and there was trash by the seat inside. The wipers did not clean the windshield properly. The steering wheel was too light, the brakes were too heavy, acceleration was slow, and the buttons inside the car were not user-friendly, making it feel like an airplane cockpit. The car's GPS failed to locate the current position all day, showing as being in Alaska, and there was never any response when calling the rental office at Calgary Airport. Despite having already bought the highest level of insurance on the rental platform, AVIS staff pressured me to buy additional insurance, warning that even a small scratch would cost 1000 CAD. This was by far my worst car rental experience ever!
Reducing the waiting time and providing the requested car model
The queue for picking up the car took more than 1.5 hours, even though the pickup time was already scheduled 45 minutes earlier, I still had to wait an additional hour. I originally requested a Ford Escape but was later told it was unavailable, so I had to take a Jeep Compass instead.
Very satisfied. I booked a seven-seater car, but after picking it up and loading the luggage, I discovered it only had six seats. I drove back to exchange the car, and the staff were happy to assist.
There were two spots where the paint was peeling off. After communicating, I signed a form and had no issues afterward. This potential problem was avoided. The dashboard showed 100%, making me think the gas tank was full, but it was actually the engine oil. After driving about 40 kilometers, it cost me 91 CAD to fill the tank. At the time of return, they told me there would be no charges, but the invoice showed a deduction of 97 CAD for not returning the car with a full tank. I fell into the trap! This dishonest company bets on the fact that you are a tourist (who won't come back), don't check thoroughly, can't read the receipt, and will give up on following up afterward (accepting the loss)! On the first night of using the car, I noticed something was off. I contacted the car rental customer service, and they assured me to keep the evidence and that I could file a complaint afterward. It's been nine days since I returned the car, and there is still no resolution. They claim they are still communicating with the store, but who knows how many years it would take?
