“Toronto - Niagara Falls - Round Trip to Massachusetts, USA”
About Routes:2.0/10
I warn everyone, do not use Routes Car Rental. They are blatantly dishonest! It's a small rental company located outside the airport. When I went to handle my rental, there were hardly any customers, but the efficiency was surprisingly low. It took 2.5 hours in total, definitely not worth it. Not only is their service irregular and improper, but the few staff members I saw at the store appeared to be all South Asian and were dishonest, lying straight to my face. I had already purchased full insurance through the rental website, with the policy in both Chinese and English, but the staff claimed they couldn't understand and forced me to buy their insurance for over $20 per day. Even after speaking with the customer service rep from the rental website, they still insisted on selling me their insurance.
Staff at the counter was trying really hard to make me pay for the mandatory insurance coverage (25 dollars a day!), even if I showed that it was already included in the reservation.
After a really long discussion a Manager arrived and in 10 seconds confirmed that it was already included...
There were two spots where the paint was peeling off. After communicating, I signed a form and had no issues afterward. This potential problem was avoided. The dashboard showed 100%, making me think the gas tank was full, but it was actually the engine oil. After driving about 40 kilometers, it cost me 91 CAD to fill the tank. At the time of return, they told me there would be no charges, but the invoice showed a deduction of 97 CAD for not returning the car with a full tank. I fell into the trap! This dishonest company bets on the fact that you are a tourist (who won't come back), don't check thoroughly, can't read the receipt, and will give up on following up afterward (accepting the loss)! On the first night of using the car, I noticed something was off. I contacted the car rental customer service, and they assured me to keep the evidence and that I could file a complaint afterward. It's been nine days since I returned the car, and there is still no resolution. They claim they are still communicating with the store, but who knows how many years it would take?
Apart from the car being rather old, average cleanliness, and having several scratches, everything else was fine. The rental and return processes were quick.
