Booked 10 months in advance for standard SUV. The offered me a compact SUV for 4 people with luggage, golf clubs etc. NOT. To get larger vehicle had to upgrade . Then their mandatory insurance and taxes are ridiculous! Original rental should have been about $2000 but ended up over $4200. Of course no one else had other vehicles available so force to rent it. NEVER rent from Hertz in Cabo unless you wish to get screwed big time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The rates are artificially low as they force you to buy very expensive insurance. Your own insurance is not allowed.

Waited in line for almost two hours to get a car. This is not acceptable.

We were not warned about the cost/need for insurance that covers Mexico which greatly increased the cost of the rental

Nothing

We had a reservation but the agent at the airport curb said they had no cars and refused to bus us to the off airport office. Never again with hertz.

Nothing. You gave us a price and when we got to Cabo you more than tripled the price. You charge extra for everything. We left and booked with Cactus.

Don’t give a price for rental car and then add for extra driver and insurance when inflating the price 3 to 4 times more.

There is a reason this shows up as the cheapest rate when you search via the internet. What they don't mention is the required mexican tax liabilty insurance that for us was DOUBLE the car rental rate. Everyone at Thrifty rental was furious in line at this hidden fee. Staff was rude, lines were long. Myself, husband and four kids had to wait over an hour for a DIRTY car that was way smaller than what I reserved. Never again.

Honest upfront pricing!

Didn’t have SUV I reserved and then way over charged me for a small Honda. Then when I turned the car in they tacked on additional fees. Service personnel were rude and intractable. I had plane to catch and had to pay the additional fees

Very Good|Jan 2018

Price was excellent

When picking up the rental salesman was very pushy on wanting us to purchase additional insurance. Since I am already covered by other means, I usually declined additional insurance but it was very tough to do so this time.

I rented a car from Thrifty recently in San Jose del Cabo. When I received the car, I was told that it was a brand new car and they quickly hustled me through the inspection process. While I was there, they tried extraordinarily hard to sell me on full coverage insurance. While I was driving the car on the highway (going more than 100 kph), the car experienced a flat tire (right passenger side front tire). It was extremely dangerous and I was able to cross the median and move to the frontage road to change the tire. When I returned the car, I was told that there were minor “scrapes” on the underside of the car and that the tire was damaged (although, there was no apparent visual evidence of damage to the tire). I was charged $US 85 for the scrapes and WAS ASKED TO PAY FOR THE FLAT TIRE ($US 50) !!! To say that I am surprised that I was asked to pay for a wear and tear item and then asked to pay for “scrapes” that may or may not have been there when I rented the vehicle (way up UNDER the front of the bumper) or could have happened when the tire went flat and I had to exit the highway in an umarked spot may be an understatement. I believe that Thrifty is not actually in the rental car business – but rather the insurance scam business. It is clear that the business model is to get people in with low rates, try and upgrade their insurance, and then charge them for faulty equipment all the while claiming ignorance.

Nothing!

Not given someone else our reservation since we were not there on time. My SUV was given away to someone else because we did not get there at 12:00pm. Our copilot had a family emergency he Of course had to leave and we were held back for two hours. Needless to say I brought all my family (6 people) and the lady said, “Your car was given to someone else because you weren’t here by 12:00pm. Sorry.” And they did not accommodate us to anything else because they were out of SUV’s. She also said since I reserved it but didn’t pay for it they gave it away. I was so upset. Moral of the story being extra cash because we had to pay triple of what I had reserved my car or just pay the reservation online.

Shuttle brought us to the rental car area with 10-15 companies all located in a complex. No one was at Dollar. We walked around for a bit and the office was closed, no cars around. We ended up having to go with a random company nearby and paying much more.

They gave us an outrageous price for liability insurance (told My girlfriend who rented the same day she had a special of $70 for the week, while we were charged $25 per day over 7 days. We're told that was the least amount of liability insurance under Mexican law and the cheapest. Bologna!! Won't trustndillar again.

Drop off was very simple and clear cut. Price was as expected.

Pickup was slow, but I think it is because people do not understand mexican insurance. Maybe you could do a better job of making that information available when people book cars. My car was listed at $12 for the week and ended up $189 for the week with full insurance. I knew it would not be $12, that's insane to think that will be the cost. I was actually pleased with the final cost , less than I expected. People renting for the fist time i Mexico are not prepared.

The cost of the rental car was something like $5 a day, but the insurance is where they get you.

Basically traded away 3 hours of our vacation time to have breakfast and get full coverage insurance for the week. They quoted us over $500 for the insurance, if we wanted to pay it out of pocket.

Mediocre|Mar 2017

The price quoted online was deceiving. It said $2 a day, when in fact it was $2 for the car but mandatory $30 a day fees... Never a nice surprise. What I expected to cost $4 ended up costing $72...
