Rented car was at least 10 years old. Full of scratches everywhere. Had 100,000 km or roughly 65,000 miles on the odometer. Sixt does not have a counter in the airport. You need to call them. Pick up service from the airport was OK Although the transport vehicle was I think 15 year old van that was scratched up and dented. And returning the vehicle it’s almost impossible because no signs are posted anywhere for returning vehicles. Awful experience. Nobody speaks English.

Car brakes made a loud noise. Very uncofortable, but I was too far away to go back and exchange the car. Office hours start at 7:00 so, if you have an early flight on your way out, you may have some troubles returning the car.

Bait and switch. My rental went from $100 to $1200 with all the extras they added without telling me. They didn’t have the class of vehicle I reserved so they charged me $200 more for the next size up. Charged me $85 for something called premium service which was NOTHING. Vehicle was beat up, and had over 100km on the odometer. Won’t rent from hertz again. I truly felt scammed.

Signs for dropoff are very confusing. Hertz should put its own sign out on the airport highway.

I made the reservation one month ahead of the trip, received my confirmation number and some remainder the day before my flight. Pick up time was 11 pm but when I arrived at 11:20 pm they were closed. The explanation I got 2 days later was : We close at 11 pm but our website needs to be updated.

Drop off was easy but pick up was awful.

They lied on pickup that having rental cars insured was a law when I asked not to get insurance. They said they would not give me the car without insurance. So I paid more than the original amount.

It’s a scam to offer $6 for a week with the car and when we got there we had to pay $400. It should have said $400 from the beginning. Horrible experience

Pick-up took too long. There were unexpected (negative) surprises such as a costly insurance necessary to rent. Ultimately paid twice what I expected. Return was swift but they wanted to charge for gas (luckily I had a picture of the gas reading at pick-up).

They were helpful when explaining the fees.

The Insurance turned out to be triple what the car cost. And I had already purchased the $10 protection. If I did not purchase the insurance, the company was going to open a credit card voucher for the total cost of the car - about $35,000.That seemed risky too.

The Avis email I got confirming my reservation indicated I would need a driver’s license and credit card at pickup (in Mexico). However, the Avis employee demanded a passport as well, which I did not have with me and did not want to go back to our hotel to get (1 hour roundtrip). He just shrugged at me with a blank expression as I showed him the email. As it turns out, the Avis Mexico website does mention the need for a passport, but everything is in Spanish. After I insisted that the employee should call his manager, they let me take the car upon “learning” I was a regular Avis customer, even though I had provided my Avis Wizard number in the Kayak reservation. The 30-minute delay led to us missing out on one of the sightseeing attractions we had wanted to see. Avis, you should train your employees to be the “Can-do” type, not the “Sorry, there’s nothing I can do” type.

The staff was not helpful at all with my experience. The clerk at the counter refused my reservation because he claimed the system read my licence to be less than one year old and when I explained here it was a renewed licence he just said there was nothing he could do. When I explained to him I had just rented a car in the US with national and that I am 40yo, that in Canada licence are renewed periodically he just refused to do something to help on the situation. Then I requested him to use his land-phone to call anyone in Avis Corp to help he simply refused. When I asked to talk to his supervisor he refused and proceed to cancel my reservation.

Train the Clark to help the customer. Make modifications to the Avis rental system to understand what a renewed licence is

their counter was closed when we arrived so we were forced to get a car from Hertz at a higher price.

They gave us a speedy ride to the proper terminal when dropping off the car.

There are three terminals in Monterrey where we arrived. There was no way to know which terminal the rental location was located. The very inexpensive rental price did not include insurance and they insisted that my insurance would not cover the vehicle so I ended up paying a regular rental rate of aroun $35 USD per day. The parking lot where we returned the car was flooded after rain and there was no safe place to get out of the car. Very difficult with large luggage.
