We signed up for a Toyota Rav 4 but ended up with a smaller Buick Encore which only just squeezed our luggage in! No rear section canopy to hide our luggage either. Disappointing.

You should have cars first then run the company. We booked 2 times within 2 weeks firstly they booked the car for us then the next day when we were ready to pickup the car they are informing us that they don't have cars right now , we have to have another 2-3 days. Such a poor management of staff, service and specially cars. Get the cats first so people can book when they urgently need it.

I did't get a car from the category i asked on the internet reservation. I had booked a 'ford escape or similar intermediate SUV" (i have a screen capture of my original booking) and I got a Jeep Grand cherokee. That was 50 cad per day more expensive. I was threatened by the agent to cancel the reservation altogether if I continued questioning it. In brief, this interaction felt disrespectful and manipulative. The car in itself was correct and allowed me to fulfill my plans. I did my part, gave it back intact, cleaned and tank filled. But in the end, i paid way more than expected and booked.
