While there were many cars available I was assigned a Chevrolet Spark (sub-compact) by the desk agent. I am 6'3". The car was a 2020 model with 40,000+ miles, had not been cleaned from the previous driver, had bald tires, and warning that the oil life was at 0%. $500+ for 3 days in an uncomfortable and potential unsafe vehicle.

Front desk worker was not pleasant to work with at all. Car smelt horribly of smoke so took two hours out of our day to exchange it. Was told I could exchange at any hertz location but 2 of the 3 locations listed on their website were no longer in business so we spent a good amount of time just driving to different locations. I will NOT be booking through Hertz again. I’ve had flawless experiences with car rentals other places in the past so I am certain Hertz is not worth it.

They were closed during the promised drop off time and charged me extra to go to another location at 5 in the morning.
I showed up to find out there were no cars available even with the reservation. After leaving the airport I was able to make another reservation about 2 hours later. There is no way to call the Representatives at the airport to find out if there were in fact cars there. So I called what must have been an Alamo corporate office and was assured there were in fact cars available. I then went back to the airport to pick up a car to find out there are still no cars available. Alamo enterprise, hertz, the entire fleet at the Syracuse airport was allowing reservations but had no cars to rent. This was an absolutely miserable experience.
I rent cars at the Syracuse airport several times per year. My experience has ranged from "fine" to outright horrible. I will only rent from Enterprise from now on. I had a great experience with a very friendly clerk at check-in. A nice, clean car that doesn't smell like smoke - no small thing these days - and a friendly staff member at drop-off. I'm moving my business to Enterprise.

I booked a car at the airport in Syracuse, just to find out that the car was never booked there but in the downtown. Which, naturally caused some issues as I had to head out for a customer dinner held in Skaneateles and then next day to our production site in Auburn. This situation caused the issues as well to Enterprise, as they had cars on the airport booked for other customers already. Eventually, we resolved the situation luckily, with loads of energy lost and nervousness around time, money and energy. Thus, I never even took over the car booked through Kayak as there was no sense for me to book the car in downtown Auburn - which was my end destination from the airport in Syracuse.
Heavy Cigarette smell in car Charged us double the price on our credit card even though receipt is for correct amount. Still disputing this matter Very difficult to contact local Avis.. rolls over to national call center.. very frustrating

Avis wasn't even open for me to pick up my rental and I had to book a much more expensive car elsewhere due to timing and emergency. I better not get charged for this.
The SUV was quite comfortable but was filthy when we picked it up. Originally I thought I requested a small SUV but when I got to the counter I was told otherwise. He offered an upgrade for the infinity SUV so I agreed. After paying and picking up the vehicle it was noted to be filthy and smelled strongly of cigarette smoke. To the point it made us nauseated. I am on chemotherapy and we also had a 5 year old with us. Me being on chemo made the smoke sensitivity worse. We were in a tight deadline after we picked it up to get to our destination so I couldn’t exchange it. I mentioned it to the clerk in the parking garage but was told us have to go back inside the airport. As above, we didn’t have time to spare. Upon return I mentioned to the attendant in the airport, she took my name and number then assured me a manager would call. It’s been 3 days later now and no phone call. Very disappointed in this transaction and likely to never rent from Payless again. Would ultimately appreciate some sort of compensation for the filthy vehicle.

a different rate was offered online and on the phone from in person for extending the trip this means that I had to drive to the airport to book an extra day for my rental
The pickup process for Dollar is broken. They make reservations without having the cars to fill them. Every other company had no line, while Dollar had 15 people in line because they had no cars to rent. We waited an hour for a car to “be cleaned” and given to us. The employee was unapologetic and dressed in athletic shorts and a gray T-shirt while giving the impression that he didn’t care. Meanwhile, I returned the car 18 hours ago and I still haven’t seen a turn in receipt in my email. Pay the extra money and rent from someone else.

I reserved weeks ahead of time, but when I got there, thu said that they didn't have a car. They explained that they book many more reservations than they actually have cars for. They didn't seem to care about that policy negatively affecting travelers. I waited for two hours, and was eventually able to get a car. Th clerk wasn't apologetic in the slightest.

Dollar refused to rent me the car because I had a debit card. They had a policy document they showed me that clearly stated they would accept a debit card if the card carried a Visa or MC logo (it does), and I could provide proof of a return flight (I showed them my ticket). They still refused saying that is not what their policy means. I missed my return flight and had to purchase a hotel stay and new airline ticket because of Dollar employees at Syracuse

Dollar had over rented their cars, so we had to wait 1/2 hour despite having a reservation. Once we were given a car, it severely smelled of cigarette smoke. We went into trade the car, and the woman working the front desk was very gracious and accommodating. Without her, this would be a 1 star review. She turned it around for us by providing us with a small upgrade and prompt service. She is worth five stars to dollar; whomever was checking cars prior to them being rented needs to do a more thorough job.
