Switched to a Ford Mustang Mach-E, and the condition was average.
We had a half-day layover in Orlando and decided to explore the city. A taxi from the airport to downtown costs $100, so we decided to rent a car. With four people and lots of luggage, we booked a Mitsubishi Outlander. However, upon pickup, we were informed it was unavailable and were given a Ford Mustang Mach-E instead, with an additional $20 fee. This shouldn't have been charged to the customer, as it was the rental company's fault. The car was smaller, and we had to place some luggage in the front seat, which was quite frustrating. I didn't argue since it was just for half a day. (Switching to a Kia Carnival would have cost an additional $20)
Overall service was good, but I was fined for returning the car with 10 liters less fuel, and the penalty was calculated based on 35 liters at double the fuel price. It seems unfair to me.
Poor service, waited a long time, constant upselling, the car had only 3/4 tank of gas. Ordered a booster seat but got a child seat instead, with no refund.
We have not got the car we booked for. I was told that the car we booked is not available due to Christmas holiday. And they offered me to take Suzuki swift instead at the same cost. We explained to them of many luggage problem. They told me to rent another Suzuki swift and pay additional cost.
Firstly we wanted to take this offer but another driver forgot to bring original driving license. So we have only one driver. This driving two cars offer is not possible. We checked with other car rental companies but they have no car available as well
We were upset and looking for other option such as flying from Auckland to Wellington directly on that day and cancelled all other booking we made such as hotels and touring programs which we booked and paid.
After spending more than an hour to find solution at nearby car rental booth there was another customer who heard of our situation, he kindly told us that he was offered Susuki swift option as well which he took it but he returned to change the bigger car after he went to the garage and he found that there were some big cars in parking garage.
So we have a hope, we returned to the booth and asked the front officers in begging manner to check the available car, luckily they offered us the Mitsubishi Triton with cab and fiber back covered trunk. This car is suitable to carry three people and all luggages. We took this offer which charged at the same price we original booked.
We delayed three hours in car rental situation so we have to skipped some program to catch up the rest.
It was shock and upset situation for us which are foreigner tourist. we would like you to find the proper solving problem in future

When traveling through NZ, was NEVER told that needed to change cars at the ferry, between the north and south island. Had to change all my ferry bookings at the last minute. Absolute nightmare of an experience and neither Europcar nor Easyrentcars.com wanted to take the blame for the lack of notice. VERY unimpressed with both. Would have rented from other companies if rentals hadn't been sold out.
