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.

We booked a luxury SUV (GMC) 20 days in advance and paid in full. When we arrived at the store, there was no arrangement for this vehicle. All 7 of us were forced into a Nissan 7-seater with no space for luggage, so we had to hold our luggage on our laps back to the hotel. They promised a car exchange the next day, took our US and China phone numbers and the hotel address, but no one contacted us. Strongly not recommended if you don't want to experience this helplessness at night. Complaint in progress!!!

A bit of a wait to get a car as a vehicle was not immediately available for the size/class booked. In the end, they offered us a nominal discount to take a smaller car. Managed to get all our suitcases in the trunk, so eventually were on our way. All good.
