pretty old car compared to the rest of the car rental company in KLIA, cockroaches crawling inside car.
engine rattling and sometimes hard to start up car.
Time to replace aging fleet
Europcar's office inside the airport is convenient for picking up and dropping off the car. I called the counter around 11:30 PM to solve the no-start issue, and their service was very good. They proactively offered a higher-class car from the mechanic if the car couldn't be fixed. However, the vehicle maintenance or quality wasn't sufficient.
1. Car smell likes old rug with sweat smell
2. Tires are different between front and back which is Continental and Ling Long. Also, tires are out of date should be replaced which almost kill us as it couldn’t hold on the road when it’s raining. Importantly, I checked their pressures. The left front was 26 which is lower than usual 31 and right front was 40 which is higher than usual 31.
3. The functions of the car is very poor. The side mirror is manual adjustment which is very old fashioned for 20 years ago. Even my first car is electrical adjustment. Air conditioner couldn’t changed the temperature. I tried to set the temperature to 30 celsius degrees. It turned out to be cool mist and temperature still 20 celsius degrees.
4. No ABS which is very crucial as I drove to Cameron Highlands and Genting Highlands which have many steep turns. This car almost killed us when I drove back. There were many steep ramps and I lost in control with the wheels. Brakes were locked. I had to used the hand brake. The car almost fell from the road and dropped from mountain clip. The car was on the opposite side of the road almost be hit by the car from the other lane. Luckily, they saw my car was not in control and they stopped in time.
5. No remote key .
6. I couldn’t start the car more than 10 times It’s very scary as i was on mountain.
7. When I turn, the car had noise sound like broken shock.
8. Window wipers were in wrong place. Poor visibility and wipers were broken. After it wiped u can see that the water still left on the window.
9. When I drove the car on the straight road, i found that the car was always go right.
10. The steering wheel is very heavy likes it’s not a power steering wheel.
I asked to chang the car when picked up but the officer said that no car at all which was not true as I saw many car in that parking lot. I never encountered with the poor car like this car before in my 15 years experience of driving.
