I prepaid for my reservation for an important trip and they charged my credit card with full amount in advance. I showed up to Hertz location but desk agent said she rented my car off to someone else. What a joke! She was also very unprofessional and called me “disgusting”. Horrible experience.Reviewed 2022 Nov 08

We had car issues, an indicator came on that the engine power was being throttled. The car would stall at stops - we'd have to put it in park to start the engine again. We tried to call Hertz many times but could never get through to them so we drove 8+ hours with car issuesReviewed 2022 Nov 02

There was no one at the desk when I dropped off so the process was a little confusing but not a big deal. I forgot to note my drop off time of 6:40pm.Reviewed 2022 Oct 16

The customer service agent at the kiosk in the Pittsburgh was very rude and condescending. She would not explain all the charges when asked. She made it sound like we’d done something wrong and would be charged extra for declining the extra insurance coverage. It definitely left a nasty taste in our mouth.Reviewed 2021 Dec 23

Due to a shortage of compact cars I was given an "upgrade" to a Nissan Altima. The car was too big to drive easily around my neighborhood with its narrow streets. After a week of calling and occasionally stopping in at the rental office I was finally able to get a Chevy Spark, the car I originally reserved. After that everything was fine. Service at the rental office was very good, but they did not have the promised inventory. The lack of inventory didn't seem to be the fault of the staff at the very cramped location of the rental office. The location doesn't allow storage of more than about 10 cars. I found Hertz's telephone and online assistance practically nonexistent. The only way to get the service I paid for was to do a lot of leg work myself. I will probably not use Hertz again because of this experience.Reviewed 2021 Jun 24

Top tips for renting a car from Hertz in Pittsburgh
- In order for you to really enjoy your experience when you book Hertz car rentals in Pittsburgh, you should carefully select the right type of vehicle for your trip. If you're traveling alone or with one other person and you want to save on fuel costs, an economy car is a budget-friendly option. Pittsburgh's terrain includes hills and scenic routes, making an SUV a good choice for both on-road and off-road adventures. If you're looking for an exhilarating driving experience, consider renting a sports car to explore Pittsburgh's winding roads and scenic byways.
- Hertz introduces its Hertz Gold Plus Rewards loyalty program, which provides exceptional benefits when you book Hertz car rentals in Pittsburgh. Within this program, Gold Plus Rewards members enjoy expedited service at Hertz rental counters, streamlining the process of picking up and returning rental vehicles. With each qualifying rental, members accrue points, which can be redeemed for free rental days. Moreover, your membership tier may grant you access to an extended selection of vehicles, including premium and luxury cars.
- One important detail to keep in mind when you book Hertz car rentals in Pittsburgh is the company's cancellation policy. If you've completed a reservation and chosen the Pay Later option, you can typically cancel the reservation without incurring any charges. However, if your reservation is prepaid, the cancellation policy may entail a fee. The specific fee can vary, but generally, it's lower when cancellations are made well in advance of the pick-up time and higher when made closer to the scheduled pick-up time.
- When you head out to start driving in your rental vehicle in Pittsburgh, keep in mind that the central business district, particularly during peak business hours, can experience heavy traffic. The area around Grant Street, Fort Pitt Boulevard, and Liberty Avenue may have more congestion. The Parkway West, especially near the Fort Pitt Tunnel and Bridge, can get crowded during rush hours and special events. When there are major sports events at venues like Heinz Field or PNC Park, the surrounding roads and highways can become congested before and after the games.
- Intermediate rental cars from Hertz in Pittsburgh are around 10% cheaper than other car types, on average.
