The only complaint I have is the windshield wipers are terrible. We were in a rain storm and they were not even clearing the window. This could be dangerous.

We rented a compact car but ended up with a pickup truck. Nice truck, but I am disabled and struggled to get into the vehicle at times. We were told it was all that was available because our flight had changed and we were much later than originally planned. I called and told Alamo about the change, but there was no record of my call.

Nothing, they either let me reserve a car they didn't have or they gave my reservation to someone else. I never got a car until it was too late and I bought a plane ticket.

Maybe save reserved cars for people that make reservations? Or better yet, don't make claims you have zero cars when in fact you do. It's pretty stupid to have cars just for one way and cars just for round trips. I guarantee it's not a lot of people that take cars for one way. You have employees that can take cars to different locations if need be.

Quick return of car. Price.

Car cleanliness. Had not been vacuumed or anything. Stains on the seats. Payment was strange and had to wait for the Hertz staff member to get phone approval for the charge from the Hertz rental's bank. It was strange and I was nervous about why it happened for such a small charge.

People at the Hertz Counter at MBS airport were fantastic

the car had mechanical issues with the tires and traction. the worst thing was the smells in the car, the car had a smoker in it previous to my rental, cigar and weed smoker and the car reeked of those smells. In addition to that the rental location has overdosed the car with liquid air freshener in an attempt to cover up the smoke. It overwhelmed my sinuses and I was unable to exchange the car it was horrible

The staff at both locations was amazing. Very helpful and on top of it.

The car was awful, it was the absolute worst car I have ever driven as a rental. I will never buy a Nissan. Poor choice to put in as a rental. Car has trouble handling over 70 mph, uncomfortable and super annoying.

Everything was great. One tire was low on air when we picked up the truck. It might have a slow leak because we had to put air in a couple other times during the four weeks that we had the truck. Otherwise the truck was just exactly what we wanted. Staff was excellent. Very friendly, very knowledgeable, very helpful. Totally excellent experience.

The day we went to pickup our rental they told me they are no longer doing drop offs at another location. This rental was already confirmed via email for a different drop off. First day of our 7 day trip from Saginaw to Houghton MI with NO car. They stated they called me in advance but they DID NOT! Why would I be there to pick it up? I had to book with Avis (they are our saviours) however they did not have a rental at Houghton airport so we had to spend $500 on another airplane ticket at another airport that was 2 hours away. I WILL NEVER USE ENTERPRISE AGAIN!

I searched a rental car from MBS to TVC on Kayak. I booked a reservation thinking I was picking my car up from the airport at MBS. My reservation said "on airport" underneath the address to pick up the car. I got to MBS and they did not have a reservation for me but said I made the reservation at the Saginaw location. MBS did not have a car to give me at the time and neither did any other rental place at MBS. I called the Saginaw location and was told no one could pick me up due to contract issues. I had to find my own transportation to the Saginaw location. I felt like no one was willing to help me or go above and beyond to try to help me. No taxi numbers were provided or really any sympathy for my situation. No one could explain to me why my reservation said "on airport" but yet I did not have an airport reservation. When I got to the Saginaw enterprise since I had booked on Kayak it seemed there was nothing anyone could do to reimburse the $46 I had to pay in taxi fare to get to the Saginaw location. Also, once I started driving the rental car I noticed the tire pressure light was on on the dashboard. I had to turn around and go back to the Saginaw location so they could put air in the tires. Overall I am completely unsatisfied with my rental experience through Kayak and will not be using it again.
