We reserved a car more than a month before our trip. When we arrived to pickup the car we went through the traditional paperwork. After a while we noticed many people waiting for their car. So I went to the counter to enquirer about my car only to find out that they did not have any cars available. We waited two hours for a car to be available. We got in the car and drove to the gate only to find out that the car couldn't be released due to mechanical issues. Again we waited for another car. The car we got had bald tires on it which I found out after inspecting the car the next morning.

You let me rent a car that wasn’t there. I left my hotel and paid for insurance on the rental and got nothing.
