Id give a Zero if i could, i rented a car through Avis/**** partnerships, when receiving the car it looked OK, but after driving at night i noticed people flashing me from behind, i then checked and found the break light was out, also when it rained the wiper blades were worn down to nothing and even smeared the glass making it difficult to see (these were two basic safety issues so i can tell they don't check the cars before they rent them out). i complained and was told to take it to a garage miles away so i just decided t... read more

Terrible customer service and misrepresentation! When you return a car early you are penalized and are not refunded your money. I will pay for the days I rent the car but not for days after I returned the car! That's crazy!

Avis gave us a car in which a tire was leaking air. The tire went flat after the first day and Avis didn't send out road service to fix the tire. They didn't give us a car we could drive either. So we paid $600.00 for a car that sat at our hotel with a flat tire. We had to find other means of transportation for our vacation. Now Avis is charging us another $295.00 to fix the tire they rented us. So we are paying Avis $900.00 !

Rented a car from Avis. The first rental I refused, due to the car smelling of smoke. The second rental, we only checked the odometer, and outside marks on the car. The car that was given to me had a white scratch, bigger than a dollar bill that was not noticed by the person renting me the car. Already you can tell, Avis does not thoroughly check their cars, as I was going to be given a rental that smelled of smoke and two be blamed for a scratch on the car I did not do, if I didn't catch it on the walk through. Upon returni... read more

No stars. ZERO! Just tried to rent a car with a coupon that Avis provided after renting me a dud on my last rental. SUV for moving whose back hatch wouldn't open. $40 for my trouble was all they would offer and I moved along bc I didn't want to create drama. Now, I go to use the coupon to reserve a car and get the Pay Later cost, only for that cost to go up $100 from the Reserve Now screen to the Confirmation email. When I call to ask why the rep tells me "Rates change constantly. If you wait to click Reserve, that rate can ... read more

Overcharged on Currency Transaction by Avis I rented a car from Avis Budget Autovermietung in Berlin, Germany for two weeks in July 2021. The rental began through an online broker, ********, and the price was quoted in Euros. At Avis, the rental agreement was also priced in Euros. We had to return the car after-hours, so I did not receive a final invoice until weeks later when we were back in the United States. Avis Budget Autovermietung charged us in US Dollars, resulting in overcharge of about 50 USD more than if th... read more

I rented a car through Avis for a month which was fine. I found out I had a leak in the drivers side rear tire which my son-in-law filled for me. Approximately one week later the tire was low again and I didn't want to bother my son in law again so I called Avis which liked me to their roadside service. I reported to them the problem and sometime later someone showed up to fill the tire. It happened again about a week later, at which time I called Avis and they connected me to roadside assistance, who later showed up to put ... read more
