So far so good.

So far so good.

When picking up the car, the staff was quite impatient because he needed to leave at 3 PM to pick up his daughter. Moreover, the platform indicated that the car rental would cost over 300 euros, but the rental company actually charged 647 euros. Additionally, the 1500 RMB already paid on the platform could not be deducted from the bill, making it difficult to get reimbursed later. After calling customer service, they couldn't provide a clear explanation. To avoid affecting the visit, we had no choice but to rent the car, thereby bearing the cost ourselves. Furthermore, extending the rental via the app was not possible; it had to be done in person at the store, which was very inconvenient. As a result, we had to rush back to Munich overnight to return the car.

After returning the car in Munich and boarding the train to Frankfurt, I realized that I hadn't returned the keys. I proactively called to ask if I should send them back via DHL from Frankfurt or return them to Europcar at Frankfurt Airport. After a while, the branch called back, insisting that I must come back immediately and take full responsibility for any consequences. I explained that I had an international flight connection and couldn't just jump off the train. They kept insisting that I return immediately or face huge fines.

Pickup at Munich Airport: After a ten-hour flight, we arrived at the counter around 11 PM. There were two staff members: a friendly English-speaking lady and a nonchalant German-speaking man. We rented three cars in total. By the time we finished the paperwork and got to the parking lot, it was around midnight. One car's warning light (triangle exclamation mark) came on as soon as we left the parking lot. We returned to the counter, but Europcar had already closed. Luckily, a returning staff member helped us. A series of steps followed: from the counter to the parking lot, determining low oil was the issue, adding oil, but it was still too low. As exchanging the car required logging into the system, and other cars were not yet registered, the staff suggested we go to a gas station to add oil or return the next day if there were issues. We insisted on having the staff accompany us, which proved wise. At the gas station, we couldn't find the specific oil the car needed, despite a full cabinet of oils. We returned to the parking lot and then back to the counter to redo the paperwork for a new car. This whole process delayed us by two hours, and a child got slightly injured bumping into a post during the wait. Experience: Europ's cars are cheap but in average condition. Given our route and need for an automatic transmission, it was the only choice. Another car's warning light came on frequently, indicating low oil. Consider the counter hours and leave extra time. If there's no one at night, it's really helpless—the airport rental counters are empty midnight. Don't believe staff if they say, 'Just observe and deal with it later.' Insist on resolving issues immediately, or it will be more troublesome if problems arise on the road.
