Every time I go on temporary duty, if Hertz is the unit cheapest option, I always go to the next highest. They always tried to sneak extra charges for fuel, even after I showed receipts. They also tried to charge my workmate over a $1000 to clean a car that smelled like weed from a previous renter in Colorado. Never rent from Hertz.
If it smelled like weed, he should have noted it in the pre-inspection. I take my iPhone and video the inside/outside of the car. Takes all of two minutes. Rented a car on the east coast and the driver wiper was trashed, bought a replacement at an auto store, kept the receipt & bad wiper. My wife was like, what are you going to do if the don’t reimburse you & I said I’ll take the good one off and they could have their old crappy one. They gave me $25 credit so I was ok with it.
