The car pickup experience was very poor. We were assisted by a Chinese staff member who made us wait at the airport for a long time. When handling the paperwork, they tried to upsell storm insurance and gravel insurance, which I declined. They did not accompany us to inspect the car comprehensively; they just handed us the keys and let us go. The car return experience was better and quite efficient.
It is said that FARA is the largest car rental company in the area. We chose it due to limited car options and pricing factors. When picking up the car, a Chinese staff member specifically mentioned the issue of insurance and suggested adding more coverage. However, since we had already purchased the super full coverage at the time of booking, we did not agree. The staff did remind us to check for any damage to the windshield and windows upon pickup. However, since we had to rush to our accommodation at Kirkjufell that night and previous car rental experiences had been smooth, we only took photos of the car's exterior. When returning the car, a different staff member, a foreigner, pretended to look around and then pointed out a small crack on the right side of the front windshield. I am sure no stone chips hit the windshield during our use, so I believe the damage was already there. Unfortunately, due to our oversight during pickup, we didn't have evidence. If the company intends to exploit consumers with damaged cars, it’s hard to avoid. Due to our flight schedule, we had to pay ISK 150,000 in advance for insurance claims. This experience reminded me that for future international car rentals, it’s better to choose a reputable global company.
