We were given incorrect information about our vehicle pickup when our flight was delayed. We were told that an agent would be available and when we arrived it was closed even though we were told that an agent would be there.

Beware of the off-hours drop box for keys! I had a 6am flight from PSP so I had to drop off the car before the Alamo desk opened. Boarded my flight. And my connection. When I got to my destination 5 hrs later, I was informed at the next airport that they couldn’t rent to me… because I had an open contract at PSP! Literally spent 1 hr 45 min at the counter trying to get someone at PSP to answer the phone. No idea why they couldn’t close out a contract within 5 hours of opening. Terrible service. Don’t trust the drop box process.

The car wasn’t even available and I wasn’t notified until a few minutes before I was scheduled to pick it up. They offered a different car at a much higher price which defeated the whole reason I was going to them - to get the low price. Very disappointing.

Hertz was great, my review is more about making a booking through Kayak instead of with Hertz directly: Making a booking with Kayak means you have no flexibility to make adjustments - so make sure you book exactly what you will need. You lock in a rate and dates, and then there is no way to adjust your booking. You can’t add or remove days, you can’t switch your drop off location. Hertz has no ability to make adjustments to your booking because it was made through Kayak at a guaranteed rate - and Kayak also can’t adjust your booking because you are technically booked with Hertz. We had extremely kind and helpful service staff with Hertz who couldn’t do anything to adjust the booking. I booked for six days and later wanted to add a seventh, they couldn’t do it even though the “weekly rate” would have technically covered the seventh day and no more money would have been exchanged. I even offered to pay for the extra day, and Hertz couldn’t do it - they literally cannot change any numbers in their system once the booking is made. I would book through Kayak again, it was easy to use and the rental price was a good deal, but I will be more careful and only book if I am 100% confident on the dates I need.

The wait at pickup counter took about 45 minutes! Budget appeared to be short-staffed as the only person working at the counter was assisting the priority lineup first and did not help the regular line until they were completely done. All the other rental counters were completely empty and the Budget line was about 10 people long. When someone eventually showed up, we told them about how long everyone had been waiting but they didn't seem to care at all. Not worth the wait.

Walked away with my keys while my spot in line was still 10 ppl from the front. Tried to cancel the reservation twice phone rang out the first time and was hung up on the second time.

I rented with dollar rentals. There was no one there at the counter. I had to go to another counter. The person at the counter immediately tried to upsell me. Immediately tried to convince me I needed a bigger vehicle. We then found our insurance And tax was going to be another almost 800$ even though our rental was under 600$. This makes no sense to Me and I will never use kayak again. I am letting everyone I know what happened and about this extra cost that seems exponentially excessive. Very unhappy with dollar rentals and with kayak

They rented a 5 year old SUV. The vehicle broke down. I needed to spend half a day waiting for tow, tow driver trying to fix car, going with vehicle back to airport, waiting in line for a new car and driving back to our hotel over 30 minutes away. When I got back to airport, they would not reimburse for Uber ride to appointment or comp the car. Stay away from this rental company or expect a rough ride.
