Cross Border

Conditional:

Depending on which countries to bring the rental cars to, policies differ:
Mexico, Canada

A vehicle can be driven across the Canadian border at any time, no matter what location it was rented from. It is recommended to have PERS coverage when using vehicle in cross border rentals for the US and Canada. The renter must have a valid driver's license and rental record to cross the border into Canada. Canadian law does require that everyone entering the country have a passport, so everyone in the vehicle must have the proper identification. If a renter (including a Canadian resident) is driving a U.S. rented (and licensed in the U.S.) vehicle to Canada, it can only be driven across the border for up to 30 days unless an extension is requested from Customs at the time of entry.

Very disappointed that they did not have the rental we asked for, and did not inform us at the check in, so we paid for the expensive vehicle and than was offered a mini van, with no exchange of price. When asked to change the price in the lot they told us it would be too much work. VERY poor service and would likely never return to this company.

Al regresar el auto el empleado no estaba bien oriento de la entrega del auto faltaba una raya de gasolina y dice que fuéramos a completar la gasolina a lo cual retornó al auto para gestionar la misma, la empleada de salida no permite la gestión y no dio el mejor servicio al cliente. La experiencia no me gusto No supieron orientar me tuvieron dando vuelta lo cual consume gasolina para cobrarla Con esto dejo saber que no deseo alquilar mas carro con la compañía

Los vendedores del mostrador intimidan al usuario con los seguros y terminamos pagando mucho más de lo que se hace la reserva.

When renting the car, we were only informed about one option for ezpass rental at $16.99 per day, without mentioning any other alternatives. After 9 days of rental, the total cost including service fee and tax was $145. However, we only needed the toll pass for 3 days. We could have chosen to pay the ezpass rental fee and then pay the actual toll charges. Additionally, Thrifty's ezapass rental fee is higher than other rental companies at $12.99 per day. The slight savings on the car rental fee does not offset the higher toll device rental fee.
