First, they insisted I buy insurance, but my order indicated I didn’t need it, which annoyed the staff. I declined the refuel option and they refused to give me a receipt, saying it was fine. In the end, I returned the car with a full tank, and they still charged me $52 for FPO. That's outrageous!

Had to wait in line for an hour late at night. The additional driver option in the order was missing, and had to resolve it through Zuzuche. The final solution was to pay upfront and get reimbursed after completing the order.

The car pick-up and return process was relatively smooth. Due to communication issues, despite being informed that full insurance was purchased, additional insurance and other unreasonable fees (such as a toll device that cost over $100 as soon as it was installed) were added at the time of pick-up. After returning home, the post-rental service representative from the rental platform was very responsible and managed to recover most of my losses. It looks like I need to review the rental terms more carefully. This time, having a young man proficient in English with us ironically made us overlook this step. The contract was displayed on a very small screen, and due to fatigue from long-distance travel, we just signed after a brief verbal explanation. This serves as a valuable lesson. Thanks again to the post-rental service staff.

Everything was smooth and professional, the mystery car was better than I expected. Their service was quick and professional. The challenge was knowing how to go to a different level of the airport than rental car buses and look for a Renaissance hotel shuttle. If QEEQ hadn't given me their local phone number to listen to a recorded message multiple times of how to get to the rental office, I would have never found it. There was NO information about this on the reservation. The office would have closed, I would have been stranded at the airport. Once I figured out from the recorded message how to catch the Renaissance shuttle on another level, it went well. But without the local number, which was given to me only because I chatted with QEEQ, finding them would be impossible. This increased what could have been less than 30 minute checkout time to almost 60 minutes because I waited at rental car shuttle area for 30 minutes before learning that was wrong.

I had a good experience but after all was said and done I wound up spending a lot more than I had planned. I think the price offer to replace gas is tricky; I found a better price while we were out at Ralph's and filled up some of the tank as needed but lost out in the end because I put a lot into the tank after already signed up for the whole tank to be replaced at a higher price. So my charge for the gas at over $70 after already putting more in the tank was astronomical. I wouldn't do this again next time. Other than this, my experience was great!

Besides the daily rental cost of around 600 yuan, there was an additional charge of $0.45 per mile. I traveled around 2200 miles in the West and was charged an extra $1000 when returning the car. Additionally, I was charged $180 and $33, which brought the total extra costs to approximately 10000 yuan. The rental company claimed that a tank of fuel could last 400 miles, but in reality, it only lasted about 280 miles, with each tank costing around $140. The fuel consumption was excessively high at about 33 liters per 100 km, which is far from the 25 liters per 100 km mentioned on the rental website. Most of the cash I brought went into fuel!!! Moreover, this poor car rental company only provided basic insurance with a deductible of $1500, meaning small damages would require you to pay out of pocket for repairs. I slightly scratched a car while making a left turn in a narrow parking lot, which will likely cost me $600-700 (deducted from the $1500 deposit for insurance claims). It's outrageous!

Shouldn't such notifications be given promptly after returning the car? Why inform us only after it became overdue? We had to handle the appeal ourselves, and the after-sales service was very poor! Additionally, they called us midway to ask if we could change cars because of their mistake in double-booking. Shouldn't they have sorted this out themselves instead of disturbing customers during their trip? Their careless approach caused us inconvenience.
