Nothing. They wouldn't rent to me and I still had to pay for the insurance.

You could have not charged me for insurance on a car I didn't drive.

Friendly and informative service.

I think customers should charged by the hour, I was late by 1 hour for my 24 hour rental and was told I would be charged an entire extra day for it, I get it, but still.

Nothing!

Our flight was delayed and when we got to Enterprise they had given our car away along with about 10 others who had contracts. They told me to they'd honor any additional costs. THEY DIDN'T! I will never use Enterprise again!

You guys forgot to mention all of the hidden fees I’ll have to pay and it ended up being almost double the cost you guys “estimated”. Maybe try getting the actual value of the car next time.

First, you need to fire the male worker at the State College Airport (Alamo section). He was like so rude.........

Car was ready for pick up in State College and drop off was easy in Kentucky

The mileage must have been logged incorrectly at the pick up location because at drop off, it said we had driven over 5,000 miles! Good think we got unlimited miles with the rental!

I went all the way to the airport so they tell me ‘we are out of cars come back tomorrow, and when i asked what will guarantee that i will find one tomorrow he replies “because am telling you” such an unprofessional treatment.

Picking up was very unpleasant. I had to wait at the front desk and listed to the agent complain on the phone for over 5 minutes about the prior customer before helping me. Then he was super argumentative, saying I was at the wrong location, but because he was nice he’d help me out - completely unprofessional. The vehicle was not something I’d ever buy, it would have been nice to see an American made option… it was like a cheap plastic toy that was seriously lacking power and comfort.

I booked the car 2 weeks ago and when it got to the day of pick up, I got to the location and that Hertz wasn’t opened. I immediately call the closest Hertz and they also didn’t have cars available, and was saying just because they DO NOT have enough staff so that location wasn’t opened. I needed the car ASAP so I had to call every rental car company to find a car but it was such a hurry and no cars were available. I paid $1200 for concert tickets and couldn’t make it JUST BECAUSE HERTZ DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH STAFFING, AND EVEN WORSE WITHOUT NOTIFYING ME, and KAYAK also have the availability opened online even Hertz does not. I was so angry and disappointed because I just threw $1200 tickets like trash because I couldn’t make it to New Jersey on time without the car. I will never come back to Kayak or Hertz and I will certainly spread out this incident and message to as many people as possible in State College so that they will not experience the same thing as me.

I completed the reservation, and the rental place called a couple days later to tell me there won’t be a car available for me. All the other rental agencies in town were booked, so I had to upend my wife’s schedule so I could borrow her car.

Even though Hertz could not fulfill my reservation, they did not erroneously charge me for it.

I was able to make a reservation to pick up a car at the State College Hertz, but when I showed up, the place was closed and I was instructed to pick up my car at the airport. I called the airport Hertz to confirm this, but no one answered the phone. When I arrived at the Hertz at the airport, there were no cars available, despite being able to reserve one.
