The car provided was a 2007 model with 140,000 kms on the odometer. We rented an ‘economy’ size car but received a car that most rental companies would classify as ‘compact’. Half way through our journey, we realised the front tyre was so bald that the wire was showing. The spare was only an emergency temporary spare and not sufficient to travel the distance required for the rest of our trip. We contacted the emergency EZU number and had no answer. When we got through to EZU the staff simply said ‘take it to a mechanic and we’ll sort it out when you return the car’. We were in Queenstown and attempted to take the car to EZU’s Queenstown branch but could not locate it and their customer service refused to provide the address. The only options provided by EZU were to repair the car ourselves or leave it at the airport (without a replacement provided). Overall, EZU were difficult to deal with, we were given an unroadworthy car and no emergency assistance.
Arbitrarily changing business hours, totally untrustworthy. They wrote that returns before 10 were fine, but on the phone, they said 9. It doesn't matter when you close as long as you inform in advance, not telling me at 7 PM that you will close at 8 PM and the car must be returned before then. Also, if you have something to do and want to leave early, we can understand if you communicate properly. Acting self-righteous while not keeping promises, and threatening customers about returning by 8 PM is unacceptable.
When picking up the car, they didn't allow an inspection, but during return, they claimed there was a tiny dent, less than 1 square centimeter, clearly an old damage. Still, they accused the customer. Such hooligans! I've rented cars abroad over a dozen times, and this is the first time I've encountered something so disgusting.
I didn't get the car that I booked. I booked Toyota corolla and they gave Nissan Tiida.
