Los Angeles, Las Vegas, San Jose, Los Angeles

The local Thrifty rental company aggressively upsells insurance. The process took two hours, and if your English isn't good, you might easily get scammed.

The shuttle bus makes you lose patience. Even though we were waiting at the rental car shuttles spot, several buses just passed by without stopping. Totally frustrating. Called customer service but they were unhelpful and had no intention to resolve the issue. In the end, we had to take the Dollar shuttle.

1. The service attitude at Thrifty's Los Angeles branch is terrible, from the manager to the regular staff. They refuse to resolve the reimbursement issue for the oil change expense, have a bad attitude, and refuse to communicate, making the customer experience very poor! 2. The online customer service is unreliable. I called the rental company hotline in the US to file a complaint, and the customer service representative promised to email me within 1-2 days with a progress update or result. However, it has been a week, and I have not received any emails, not even an acknowledgment of my complaint! This makes me feel that the customer service did not report my complaint at all. 3. The internal communication of the rental company is extremely chaotic. After discovering an issue with the car, I called the roadside assistance hotline for a solution. The service personnel asked me to add oil immediately; otherwise, it would affect the vehicle's performance and could lead to an accident. After repeatedly confirming, the customer service assured me that I could get reimbursed when returning the car. I added the oil and covered the expenses. However, when I finally returned the car, the Los Angeles branch refused to reimburse me, stating, 'You should have bought the roadside assistance insurance, then you would have been able to replace the car for free.' This is extremely frustrating! This incident not only disrupted my schedule but also affected my travel mood, and in the end, they even withheld my reimbursement. It's absolutely intolerable!

Very bad! They overcharged! Waited two and a half hours to pick up the car at Los Angeles airport!

I included a child booster seat in my order and received confirmation. However, the rental company seemed unaware of it when I arrived to pick up the car. Moreover, after requesting a booster and confirming the order, I had to wait a full 45 minutes to get the seat and drive away. If that's the case, what's the point of having this option when booking through the platform?
