Car was not available and had to be put on waitlist. Ended up needing to Uber to another company and location. Waste of time

Fast and easy. Pricing was great. I needed a 1 month rental and they came through with no issues and upgraded me to a little SUV.. I will be back again.

I asked for a regular car and got an electric car. I had to do a 4 hour drive. Midway through my journey, the electricity ran out and I had to charge the car for 1.5 hours, which caused a severe delay. I tried to call hertz but there was not one to talk to and I received no assistance. I had to charge the car again before returning it to the agency, which caused a further delay in my journey. I was very disappointed and will not rent a car again from Hertz.

It was hard to find the location without a sign. Who knew the office was off the lobby? Initially, no employee was in the office and we had to wander around to find him or her. Gas powered car (which is what we reserved and the reason we were renting) was not available so we had to wait for an hour. Car was economy so wasn’t great. Suspension in car was particularly bad but it functioned ok for a trip.

Hertz store was closed due to MLK day; however, the system still allowed me to reserve a car on that date. Disrupted plans, and I had to find out alternate quickly. I ultimately canceled my reservation, which consumed unnecessary time as well/ The Kayak and Hertz site should accurately display dates for pick up and account for holidays. This is a huge oversight.
