safety hazard -- bald tires on rental car

Pros: Similar to Thrifty in U.S., but this was outweighed by lack of tread on rentail car tires.

Cons: Thrifty employee acted as though renting a car with almost no tread on its tires was normal.

Great car for a great price

Pros: Good, reliable car tgat easily fir 4 adults plus all their luggage (mist of us traveled light). Friendly service at pick up and drop off. The car was very clean when we picked it up.

Cons: Although the car was super cheap, the insurance was quite steep. Tge website didn’t mention anything about the cost of the insurance; we had expected extra costs for it, but not this much. It would be good if tge website were more transparent on the topic.

They still owe me a $300 refund! It's been 11 days.

Pros: Not much.

Cons: We ordered a Jeep Wrangler and were only offered a Suzuki Jimmy that could practically fit in the back seat of the Wrangler. They refused to drop the price, saying it was a comparable vehicle and a Wrangler was not available. We were also told that it is mandatory to get full insurance in the country of Panama, so the price immediately went from the quoted $78 to $350 for the week. Then we ended up getting a vehicle from my wife's family, so I returned the Jimmy after only 3 hours. I added fuel to it and was told I would still be charged for 1 full day, at just over $44. I was told they would refund the remaining $300 and as of today, 11 days after the rental, I still don't have my refund. I intend to seek legal action if I don't get my money back very soon.

Overall very good except for one thing

Pros: Car was great, no issues.

Cons: Forced to purchase mandatory collision coverage or they would not let me have the car. Supposedly this is common in Panama. I believe I was covered with my credit card insurance. This raised the price a ton.

Worst car rental experience ever

Pros: Nothing

Cons: After a 20 min line they just said to me that my reservation was automatically canceled because im local(panamanian) and online reservations are only for tourists. I had to looked for others car rental companies and thanks to Alamo Rent a car they save my weekend. So stupid to said or to even have a policy (that no one knows about it) that affects local people.

Good Car

Pros: The car was great. Brand new actually. Only 4000km on it.

Cons: We expected the insurance to be high, but what we didn't expect were other charges (labeled as the Daily Rate) that were added on. They didn't amount to much ($3.52/day) but it still didn't seem right. The counter agent explained to us that it was a standard rate added on because we booked online. He said many people bring it up when they see it on their receipt and that it was normal. We think we got ripped off a bit, but it wasn't worth fighting over for the small amount it ended up being.
