Specifically paid extra for Toyota RAV 4, but received FORD ESCAPE. Which were cheaper to book. Receptionist treated my like an idiot - "it's basically the same car". Take it or leave it. Windshield was chipped even though I was assured car had no damage and I had to explain myself during the drop-off.

The car was a surprise as I was hoping for a Toyota Rav4, what I got was a Kia Sportage. Nevertheless, the car performed perfectly, was very comfortable and did well driving on snow. The availability of snow tyres was only apparent at the point I was picking up the car. I wish there was an ability to choose this beforehand.

I thought I could get Nisssan car but the customer service representative gave me another car without explanation. Moreover, my deposit hasn’t been refunded for more than 10 days. I need to call Thrifty again for clarification.

The Thrift counter staff rented 'my' (booked, confirmed and paid for) Durango to another customer as I waited in line. I was left with no choice but to accept an alternative that was not a "Large SUV" as I had contracted, but a minivan. It was adequate but not what I had ordered and not what I had paid for. And I can not understand how one salesman could rent out a vehicle that was already booked for another customer. It's never happened to me before and I will not rent from Thrifty again.
