Horrifically slow and inefficient pick-up experience

The pick-up line was atrocious - even with 4-5 staff at the counter, it took 40 minutes to get to the front. I had a simple pick-up (only driver, online reservation, no extras) and it still took 10 minutes to be done at the counter - it was easily the most frustrating car rental experience I've ever had. The agents all seemed to be trying to upsell every customer on every possible item. The transaction technology was also really sluggish and antiquated - the kiosk I was on crashed halfway through.
I did notice it until I was driving to my destination but the check engine light was on and remained on the whole time I had the vehicle. In addition the vehicle seemed to be out of gear even though it was an automatic that something could be wrong with the shifting or acceleration. I caused several minor scares throughout the time I had it.
We went to pick up the car from Fox Rent a Car and when we arrived at 10AM we were told they didn't have any full size vans/similar cars available that we reserved. After waiting for over an hour, we were then sent to Payless Car Rental who we were told would honor the price and provide us with the correct car. When we got there they told us they only had a standard SUV....after we went down to get it, there was no way our luggage would even fit in the car. So we went back to the counter and another person there was able to finally provide us with a Dodge Grand Caravan which we originally ordered. Will never order from Fox Rent a Car ever again....thought the whole point of reserving a car meant it would be there for us when we arrived.

Long wait to get the car at the rental counter. System or employee taking too long. Employee not friendly. Car needed new wiper blades as it was hard to see in the rain in Seattle. And it rains almost daily there. Kinda of a safety hazard.
The car was horrible. The ride was poor. Seemed like a wheel was out of balance. It would start off rough and then even out but 0-50 was not good. Car lacked power and acceleration was not smooth. It was a hard pedal which made feel difficult. There was something wrong with the windshield that caused blinding by oncoming car light at night. I tried to remove it by washing the outside and inside several times but the glare remained.
