Budget Rental Car In Poor Condition

Post by Goldy » Thu Dec 22, 2022 11:04 am

The last rental from Budget resulted in a Toyota Corolla. I was disappointed due to the fact that the car was rather old and in bad condition. It’s already got almost 50 kmiles. The car was full of scratches which is something I really don`t like when I rent a car. For me it expresses the overall condition of such a rental car.The only positive was that the Toyota was equpied with brand new tires. As an example for the bad condition I`d like to provide you with the following pic:

Such cars are very frustrating for any renter. But these issues are typical for Budget.

From Budget I always got cars which were poorly maintained. I avoid to rent from Budget. My last rental was from Sixt. They gave me an almost new car. :D

I also experienced with Avis on a Jeep Wrangler and a Jeep Compass. Both were high mileage vehicles but were way overdue on oil changes and had bald tires

The car I`ve got recently from Budget was heavily damaged. Honestly speaking I was not very pleased having had to drive a rental car full of scratches.
