    Pros: I didn't find any Pros.
    Cons: Won't have your car ready at Club Gold area.
    Hertz is "sold out" of cars?

    Summary: As a Hertz #1 Club Gold member I must say this is one club not worth the dues.  First time renting a car, Hertz didn't have my car at the Club Gold area.  They explained to me it was because Hertz "activates" the membership only after the first

    Pros: Car was clean.
    Cons: Long wait, terrible customer service, chaotic return process.

    Summary: After waiting in line for 30 minutes (and we were next in line!), we came face to face with someone who looked human, but acted and spoke like a robot. It was very disheartening to wait in line for so long and then be treated like we weren't worth

    Pros: None
    Cons: Everything

    Summary: We rented a car for Ireland and got the minor collision insurance. We should have gotten the full insurance (if that even would have helped). Someone hit the side of our car and made a ding about the size of a walnut. Hertz charged us 1500 for repairs.

    Cons: Thirsty car (KIA Rio 1.4 , 10km/litre), Arbitrary Cleaning Charge

    Summary: Hertz Rentals provided me and my partner with a small car for a 2 week rental in Portugal. The car was nothing special (A Kia Rio)  and wasn't intended to be. When we returned it , it was dusty and dirty but not excessively so and nothing

    Gas tank was not full.
    Main't rec'q light was on.

    Pros: Better customer service than most.  Hertz #1, Avis just tries harder ;-)
    Cons: Unexpected early return penalty.

    Summary: I have had similar early return stories with Hertz.  This happened to me in Denver, Dallas, and Cleveland.  I was able to get the charges straightened out, but they changed the rental rate.  It seems that if you book say 3 days, you get a
