When I rented a car on the Zuzuche website, I carefully read the site’s introduction and knew that the store would try to sell additional insurance. My English isn't very good, but the store’s service attitude was alright. Before signing the contract, the agent showed me an explanation about the extra insurance, which included a Chinese translation. However, the translation was done directly from English, and frankly, even as a native Chinese speaker, I couldn’t understand it. I asked the service agent if it was mandatory; he said yes, so I agreed. Then he printed out a contract for me to sign, and I realized it included the additional insurances mentioned on the Zuzuche website, which I originally didn’t want to buy. I told him I didn’t want any extra insurance, so he had to print a new contract for me. I booked a Chevrolet but got a Buick Excelle, similar to the car I drive at home, so it was easy to handle. However, being the first time driving abroad, I was a bit nervous. I drove around the airport area for a while, and after a few days, I felt that driving in Canada is mostly similar to driving at home. But it’s crucial to stop at intersections with a 'STOP' sign, regardless of whether there are vehicles or pedestrians. At intersections without traffic lights, you must follow the zipper merging rule. This is very important. One day, in a hurry to drop my child at school, I followed the car ahead too closely and almost crashed into a car coming from the perpendicular direction.
The car pickup from Vancouver airport was very slow, taking nearly an hour. They gave us a brand new car, which was in excellent condition and had driven less than 3000 kilometers without any issues. Returning the car was extremely easy. The staff had a good attitude.
The car pickup process was relatively smooth. The staff asked us where we were headed and, upon learning we were going to Banff, suggested we upgrade the car because the mountain roads might be challenging. In reality, there weren't many mountain roads, and they were very easy to drive on—it was easy to accidentally speed. They also asked if we needed roadside assistance insurance, but we decided we could change a tire ourselves, so we didn't add it. When we picked up the car, it seemed like we got an upgrade to a Ford Focus, which was practically new (only 5000 km driven). We were so excited about the new car that we didn't thoroughly inspect it; the windshield had a small crack. Although it didn't affect driving, we were a bit worried, especially since it rained later. We contacted the rental company and QEEQ for reassurance, and they both told us not to worry and enjoy our trip. The car return was unexpectedly smooth, taking only a 30-second inspection mainly to check the fuel tank. Overall, this company was pretty good.
The up-sell of insurance at the counter was a bit vague. Ask more questions before you make the decision.
