初めて海外でレンタカー、お出かけ前にもちょっと小ドキドキ。全体が順調だった。Qeeqのサービスに感謝します。

Thrifty's human-computer interaction machines are very user-friendly. If you have already booked a car, you can have a video call with the company representative directly on the machine. It’s as good as talking to a real person, and everything can be done in a few minutes without having to queue at the counter. It’s surprisingly advanced and convenient.

The staff will try to upsell various things like insurance when you pick up the car. They exaggerate a lot, but you can ignore them all as it's completely unnecessary. If you have a friendly face, you likely won't get the car model you reserved; it will be much smaller, and there's currently no solution for this.

The WORST rental car experience I have ever had! 1) Added an emergency road service with extra charges to my order without clear notification at the pickup. Finally ended up with USD 62 more than the original order! 2) The vehicle was a very old Hyundai Elantra (if not a Toyota, it should be a Hyundai Sonata)---poor conditions with high mileage (over 40 thousand miles). This is the worst rental car experience I have ever had! They added an emergency road service at pickup without clearly informing me, resulting in an additional charge of 62 USD. The car was supposed to be a Toyota Corolla, but it was an old Hyundai Elantra with high mileage and poor conditions. If it had to be a Hyundai, it should have been a Sonata, not an Elantra. I swear I will never choose Thrifty again.

I arrived in San Francisco already feeling exhausted. When renting the car from Thrifty, the staff told me that I must buy third-party liability insurance as required by California law. I ended up spending half an hour on the phone with the domestic rental car service. Some representatives said it wasn't necessary, while others said to pay it first and discuss later. The inconsistency in information was very poor, wasting much of my time. Ultimately, due to my firm stance, they temporarily did not charge me for the third-party liability insurance.

Thrifty overbooked their rental cars, which caused we waited more 2 hours. The staff solicited me to raise cost to upgrade car & get car soon, otherwise there will be 2 more hours waiting. I provided my phone number to get their notice. After 2 hours waiting by the counter, they did not inform me the car was ready until I approached asked the staff, then he said my car was ready....
