Awful. Had a reservation for a rental and when I arrived on time to pick up the rental they were “sold out” and had no cars available at all and offered zero assistance to help me get to my destination 75 miles away. Terrible experienceReviewed 30 June 2025

First of all my rental was not ready until the next day. Second I was given a dirty car. Second now I'm getting charged. Worst experience with Budget!Reviewed 3 Feb 2025

I was told the only car available was a Tesla, which was fine, but there was absolutely no information/staff available to answer basic questions. (How to start the vehicle, how to detach the charging adaptor.) I asked a Budget staff member in the garage to help, but he was busy with other customers and his coworker was apparently not answering his phone to come help. The worst part was that it was only charged to 50%, and I had a 90 mile trip ahead of me at 1am through a very rural area. I got to my destination with 15% left, but it was somewhat nervewracking. I didn’t realize that it was only charged to 50% because I am new to Teslas and was looking for an approximate range (ie 200 miles) as is common with other EVs I have driven. The car also came with 2 identical charging adapters, ostensibly to help the Tesla connect to non-Tesla EV chargers. But this adapter did not fit the advanced charging station at my hotel, and I question why it came with 2 identical adapters, not 2 different ones. My only option was to go to a Tesla supercharger, which was only 12 miles away, but it was still quite a hassle.Reviewed 16 Dec 2024
