Car was wonderful. When we picked it up it looked new in a poorly lit garage. When in bright daylight we noticed that the car had been side swiped. We returned to the rental agency and was told that an insurance claim had already been filed. That should have been brought to our attention at pick up time. On returning the auto we had been told where to go and that the kiosk had a place to leave the keys. There was no secure place to leave the keys so we left them under the seat. Other than those two issues we were very pleased with the car as it had many safety features

We were only able to drive the car for the airport, one day while we had it and back to the airport. The key fob wouldn’t work. And it took us a couple of days to find someone who carried the battery. So we had to pay for that also.

We left a medical device in the rental car when we dropped it off at the airport in New Haven, CT. We realized when we were on the plane, and there was no way to get it. The employees at the branch went above and beyond to get it to us. We were so relieved with the help they gave, and how kind they were with the situation. We will absolutely rent with them again!

Despite being on time for our reservation, the rental counter was closed and the personnel had left for the night. My family was stranded in the airport, and I had to wander the rental car garage at 11PM to find an employee of a different company who eventually helped us get a car so we could get home. I will never rent with Avis again and will strongly recommend to anyone who asks that they avoid them if at all possible.

Reserved a 12-passenger van for 7 weeks. Avis will only give you a rental agreement for 30 days. I was told they would automatically email a new rental agreement for the remaining time. That didn’t happen. It took COUNTLESS phone calls, two visits back to the pickup location to get the updated agreement. Avis customer service in a word, sucks. Twice the agents hung up on me. I was transferred around so many times my head was spinning. Oh, I almost forgot about the certified letter demanding that I return a vehicle that wasn’t due back. I will not use Avis again, which is too bad — they used to be a decent rental car company to do business with.
