They did not have a regular gas car like we had reserved, our only option was an EV. We were travelling to rural VA so finding a charger added significant stress to our vacation. The staff were polite, but not helpful and did not seem to care about our frustrations. Their suggestion was to try other rental companies (who were already fully booked).

Hertz ran out of cars, and the customer service was very slow. They did give me an electric vehicle, all they had left, and something that I didn't order/didn't know how to drive. I would be hesitant to book at this Hertz again because apparently they didn't have enough cars for all reservations.

Mediocre|Jun 2023

The staff was friendly and accommodated us when we wanted to change the type of car we had reserved. However, the location was terrible and no one answered the phone when I was trying to get directions. Google maps also had the incorrect location so we were walking around an unsafe neighborhood trying to find the car rental. The car we rented smelled like smoke, so we had to leave the windows open. At minimum, there should be more detailed information on the location of the car rental. There were multiple people who had the same problem.

Ordered the manager's electric special, Hertz was unable to provide a car with more than 18% battery charge, which is only a 60 mile driving range. Unlike internal combustion vehicles, the customer cannot just instantly refill the tank, it would have taken hours to charge. This is irresponsible and unacceptable. I cancelled the reservation and had to make different arrangements. On top of that, the Hertz agent does not have the ability to cancel the reservation, I had to call a 1-800 number and was assured that my refund would be processed in a few weeks. I'm not holding my breath.

Hertz was informed by me mid day that our train had hit a child and killed them in Kannapolis NC. We were 4 hours late because of this and they closed as we arrived and we did not get a car from them. The car was reserved with Dollar rent Car which is handled by Hertz but not at the Train Station only at the airport so no car the next day either. We have disputed the charge on our credit card and we will see what happens. The woman on the phone on the day of the reservation was one of the rudest people I have ever dealt with. We will avoid Hertz in the future. I guess good help is hard to find and they are living proof of that.

Great value. Signage in Union Station made it difficult to find Hertz in parking garage.

Poor|Oct 2022

I never got to rent a car with Thrifty. My booking was for collection in Washington DC in a central city location, when I got there a security guard informed me the Thrifty office had been closed for over a year. I called the help desk and the customer service agent on the phone said “our system says that office is still open, but I can see on google maps it shows ‘Permanently closed’… maybe go to the airport and see if they can help?” Which is pretty shocking from a corporate help desk. When I arrived at the airport they couldn’t help me and couldn’t hire me a car. So I went to Dollar instead. Would not recommend.
