Reserved, specifically, a luxury vehicle to fit four people and two suitcases in the trunk. At arrival, as given the choice of two of the exact same vehicles, Genesis G70s, which are COMPACT sports sedans. Only one of our suitcases fit in the tiny trunk so my sons, ages 17 and 20, had to ride in the back seat with the other suitcase between them. Not comfortable. And not easy to get seat belts buckled, either. The car was very clean and drove well but I don't feel I actually received what I paid for.

Alamo did not allow me to get a car because they won’t take anything but credit card bookings. This should have been made clear at the offset. We spent money, time and resources to get to Newark to be disappointed. Missed our connections afterwards and everything that was planned after had to be cancelled. Super disappointing.
I had reserved my car almost two weeks before. We took an over night fight with an 80 plus senior and two kids. When I got to hertz at the designated time, there was a long line of those waiting for cars. At 9:30 AM I was told to wait 30 minutes for my car when checking in. We waited until 11:30 am. Stood back in the long line, only to find out that we were no longer in the computer. Did not get our car until almost 12:30 pm. Lines were long, with only two people in check in who seem disengaged.

Kayak allowed me to book the rental car and charged me for the insurance right away yet when I arrived in Newark after paying $220 for an Uber from LaGuardia at three in the morning, I was told “I cannot honor that reservation“ since it wasn’t made 24 hours in advance. I was left with no rental car an expensive Uber ride to where I thought there was a car since my reservation was confirmed and was left with no way to get a car. It seems like this process shouldn’t have allowed that to happen.

Newark rental experience was awesome. Unfortunately my rental was supposed to be picked up at Laguardia airport, and the Hertz team from LaGuardia is about the most disrespectful you could have find anywhere in the USA. They forced me to get an Uber and made me go to Newark to pick up the rental over a technicality that I was not responsible for. I spent 3 hours in the whole process, and I experienced the worse level of customer service at an airport’s Hertz rental location there at LaGuardia. Needless to say, I’m not using Hertz car rental services ever again… Sincerely, Tony Zapata.
They added a $51.43 charge after the fact to my card because I declined to use their insurance while using my own like I have always done. They said because my policy was not zero deductible (who’s is?) that I had to be charged. They also said this was in the rental agreement which I didn’t see until I picked up the car because I rented and pre-paid through a third party. Of the hundreds of cars that I have rented all over the world I have never had this happened. Stay away from these guys. It’s an off/site shady operation. Their facilities in Newark are a hassle to get to and they are pretty scummy. They don’t even have a bathroom for their customers.

They overcharged me for geo fence and that was not mentioned at the time of booking. You all should better job of mentioning this on booking rather than adding in somewhere in term and condition. I felt like getting changed on what was not suppose to be for unlimited mile car. The car also was not maintained it was showing oil change message and brakes were not good either.

Transfer from/to airport is the biggest challenge!
Because I purchase the rental through Kayak and not them they charged me a deposit that I did not have so I was not able to even get the rental.

(a) Girl was not at station to issue car for 10-12 min (b) Super Rude, arrogant girl at counter who seemed unhappy to have customers (b) Lied about return policy of car being minimum 90% charged (d) Charged twice 200 $ security deposit (e) Thrifty did not gave charging cable and charger , while no where in booking it was mentioned that they do not give with car ( unlike Europe ) or select these as additional rent options as they do with other accessories like child seat / snow chains/ gps etc. I had a super horrible time looking for chargers, waiting at charging stations, limiting my travel plans and their was a 24/7 stress to keep managing and planning charging and travel (f) i am already in touch with my lawyers to look upon the above aspect as i feel i have been cheated

Your credit card requirements are ridiculous. If you want this stupid system, have a way to check the credit card before the customer shows up. Requiring credit cards that have chips with the person's name who booked the car is strange. It cost us money, time and anxiety. Will ensure to not book work you or Hertz again.

I was charged for fuel even though I filled up 10 minutes from the airport
The gas tank was not filled all the way and when I pointed it out to the attendant he claimed that it was…. It was a little more than 3/4 full and he didn’t want to deal with it. Will not be using this company again.
