San Francisco, Highway 1, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Death Valley, San Francisco

Very satisfied

The tire had a leak midway, but I quickly found a store and got a new car.

I ordered on Zuzuche to get a free tank of fuel, but it wasn't provided at pickup. They changed it to full-to-full without notice.

When picking up the car, they initially tried to sell me an extra insurance for $10 a day. I had already purchased full coverage in my home country and clearly declined their offer. However, the white male attendant insisted I buy road assistance insurance, claiming it wasn't included in my plan. Since the English description looked like third-party liability insurance and he said it was mandatory, I had no choice but to buy it. Later, the pre-authorization turned into an actual charge of over $400. Spent the New Year negotiating this with customer service. Very poor experience. If your English isn't good, just say 'No' and don't pay extra.

All rental companies at San Francisco Airport are in one location, making it very convenient. Plus, AVIS car pickup is on the first floor, which is great. The first staff member we met insisted there were no Mustangs and kept pushing us to upgrade. We went to the car lot and saw numerous Mustangs, so we talked to a different staff member and finally got a Mustang! Los Angeles Airport is not like this – each company is quite far from the others.
