They buckle and done you. We had to wait 2 hours in line to pick up our car. Car smelled like someone smoked in it. My husband couldn’t drive unless we paid 13$ extra per day. Won’t use them again.

Call center advised me that at the pick up location they would honor my corporate discount. When I arrived I was greeted by a woman eating a sandwich and then was rude her manager came out ungroomed like he was sleeping in the back room. The car was not clean. The seat was so low and the handles didn’t work to pull seat higher then car made a clacking noise on and off our road trip very stressful.

My car broke down late at night on a road trip and I believed it was totaled, so I booked a rental to get me home for work. Thrifty did not offer any sort of help to accommodate my needs and kept the down payment I provided. Overall, they made my experience much more stressful than it already was.

Office was a mess. The car itself sucks. Run out of liquid for washing windshield in only few days. For couple times, there is a smell of burned when I braked. After 1 week, the car vibrated violently when I braked. When I returned the car 6 days earlier, I still was charged for fuel charge even though I fill the tank as much as I got the first day. The person who took care of the return never said anything or at least mentioned it. It could prevent all this wasting time for me to file a claim

Booking through kayak is a waste of time. I went there to get my car they said they didn’t have my reservation I told them I paid for insurance with kayak and they told me that third parties insurances don’t actually work and that I should get a refund from kayak The car was more expensive then listed on kayak by an extra $100 and the car was dirty when they brought it to me. Chips everywhere

We were lucky to have rented an SUV that only had 24 miles on it. There was still plastic covering parts of the console. This was the first time I had driven this sort of vehicle. It had a ton of features and was super comfortable.

It was difficult to find the car rental location and when I called it was hard to get ahold of someone to clarify directions. The agent was all by herself and couldn’t manage the desk and the phone by herself without effecting the quality of service, but she did the best she could and was great.

There was a bit of a wait upon arrival to get the vehicle, however registering via the AVIS website saved me tons of time. So, when my turn came up, I was in the vehicle and on my way, rather quickly. I also think it is great that I was able to earn AA miles for the rental. The partnership is much appreciated.

Picking up the car was incredibly smooth. I was afraid I would have to sit there waiting on the shuttle for a long time but both times it was ready to go. Bus drivers were very friendly and funny. Getting my car took ten minutes max and dropping it off took 5 minutes. Everything went much better than expected. The car was clean and perfect for my needs. All in all a great rental experience.

Due to several flight changes by no fault of my own, I had to cancel my trip hours before I was to pick up the car. I tried desperately calling from the airport but the person could not find my Payless confirmation number in her system. It wasn't until the next day that I was able to call the Payless office and it was too late then. Please do penalize the Payless facility but I won't be using Kayak again with the no refund policy.
