At the location, they tried to upsell me, claiming that California roads are difficult to navigate and suggesting a safer SUV upgrade for an additional fee. Their sales pitch was hard to refuse. Then they said I could choose any car between spots 60-99. A lot of misinformation followed, and I accidentally drove off in a car someone else had reserved. I couldn't exit the parking lot after scanning the QR code and had to return the car. The entire car rental process took almost 2 hours. In the end, I decided not to go with the SUV upgrade, got a refund for the price difference, and rented the sedan from my original booking. They gave me a car that's a tier higher than what I initially booked, which was a pleasant surprise.
Very good overall, smooth experience. They only tried to upsell the highway ETC, which I didn't rent. However, there were few staff members so I queued for over half an hour. Americans work quite slowly.
On November 6th, Beijing time, I went to the rental company's Cucamonga store at Los Angeles Airport to exchange cars. At the time, I couldn't exchange the car because I didn't bring my driver's license notarization. They had to close the order. The store manager clearly informed me that the remaining unused rental time would be refunded to the dealer, and asked me to wait. The rental company told me that the amount would be refunded within 7 business days after the end of the original order time, which is noon on the 17th (U.S. time). Just now, the rental company informed me that the unused amount would not be refunded. I hope you can listen to the call recording between the rental company and you on Beijing time, November 6th! They clearly informed me that the order could be closed and the money would be refunded!
The staff was very rude, and they forced us to buy insurance; otherwise, we couldn't pick up the car.
