Thank you for the very detailed information about the technical issues @Lauderdalerick . Jeep obviously is aware of the technical problems.

Thanks there’s a reason why this 9 speed automatic isn’t used in anything else but cheap shitboxes like compass and renegade the 9 speed is also geared horribly.

ZF offers also high quality and well performing gear boxes like the 8 speed automatic. They are installed in BMW or Audi cars. ;)

Flight got canceled so i rented a car from Enterprise a 2023 Toyota Rav 4 adventure with 20,562 miles on it. It had leather seats and soft touch materials but that’s about it. The vehicle was really underpowered and was a gas guzzler. It was a good experience renting it with enterprise

Thx for the short report @Lauderdalerick !
The Rav 4 is a reliable car. As far as the power of the engine is concerned there is some room for improvement. Anyway a great rental.

I wouldn’t buy a rav4 but it got the job done for a day it got me home after a flight cancellation which I appreciate.

Same opinion.
Suppose the rental rate was not that expensive......

$28 for a day and a half. The rav4 I found to be a gas guzzler. I couldn’t believe something so small consumes so much fuel and the transmission always made a water slushing sound when shifting and the vehicles engine was anemic.

Boooah, great rental rate, almost nothing. I didn`t know that the RAV 4 is a gas guzzler and that the transmission has technical issues. I think the reason for the technical issues is that the car is a rental car and was not well treated. :o :x

Hello!

I`m a new member here in the forum. As first post I`d like to report about my last rental which took place on the european island of Cyprus. I spent a one week holiday over there. I rnted from europcar a KIA Picanto which is a small car but very low in fuel consumtion. It was an efficient and great rental. All went well and I`ll come back to cyprus and Europcar as well. ;)
