They didn’t have size of car I reserved so had to take a smaller car. Vehicle had 78000 miles on it! When I started driving it would shake above 50mph. Just kept it for the week to avoid the headache of going back and trying to get something else.

With four agents working the counter at Sky Harbor Airport car rental there was no wait time. Easy check in process. Vehicle received had 66,000 miles but still in great shape inside and out. No issues with the vehicle during my week of use and approximately 750 miles. Return process was even easier with parking the car, leaving the keys in the vehicle and heading to our flight. No need to check out with an attendant or counter! Would not hesitate to use Fox again if it is a choice in the future.

Pickup was simple, fast (at Phoenix airport) - the manager was highly professional in helping locate a 4WD vehicle for us. Dropoff (at El Paso airport) couldn't have been easier - just left the car and walked into the terminal, then got an electronic closure document.

I loved the in person customer service. They are the absolute best in both my pick up and drop off locations! They treated me very well and I am grateful for their help through it all. Something that could improve was clarity. I was not made aware about the policies that I committed to when it came to renting a car. It would be nice to know the pricing breakdown and why I felt like I was being overcharged. Also the customer service on the phone was confusing, not helpful, and rude.

There was confusion regarding the class of vehicle. We had a luxury class vehicle reserved and I believe we only got a premium class vehicle. We dropped the car at Las Vegas Airport instead of a hotel which was 3 miles from the airport. Enterprise wants to charge me another $300.00 drop off fee in addition to the original $400 for a one-way charge!

The Sixt experience was perfect--except for the car I rented. The agent offered me an upgrade from a Toyota Camry to a BMW for a minimal increase in payment. Never having driven a BMW, I agreed. But the car was a low-slung sporty model, and getting in and out of the car was very challenging! It handled magnificently in every way, but its comfort level was lacking. I wish the agent had informed me of this particular feature--and I would've stayed with the Camry. I'll know for next time...

Don't book with SIXT if there's even a 1% chance you'll need to cancel. It was the most infuriating process ever to cancel. Their website (there's absolutely no human to talk to) kept saying I needed to go through kayak to cancel. Kayak's website (also no human) says you have to go through SIXT. Neither was taking responsibility. After 8 emails SIXT finally cancelled it, which showed they were indeed the ones able to cancel it!!! Took way too much time. Don't recommend.
2.0 Mediocre2022 Jan 05
We rented Sixt, through Kayak, and had an impossible time cancelling the reservation. We called, we sent emails, we tried to cancel through their website. Kayak indicates that any cancellation is through Sixt. Sixt makes the cancellation virtually impossible. We had a health related cancellation and we emailed the line, and got back an auto-response. We called and got sent to the email (which had the auto response). We tried to cancel use their cancel button, but it did not recognize the reservation. Then, we got billed, so now we have to dispute the charge through our credit card. It's not worth the hassle to rent through Sixt.

Completing the rental process with their representatives was easy and they were courteous. The vehicle was ready and clean for us, it took us less than 20 minutes to get out of there.Tried to sell us (upgrade) everything, you already got us to pay a large amount of money, don’t try to get your hands on my wallet again. Either upgrade us for don’t mention a nicer car to intrigue us and remind us we’re renting a less than luxurious car.

The car was clean and well maintained.The price ended up being twice what was advertised on Kayak. The agent at the counter charged my card and finished out my ticket before even explaining the charges. When I asked about them, he was unable to satisfactorily explain them. I felt like my questions weren't important and the agent wasn't prepared to answer them.

Turned out okAfter flying across the country (Syracuse to Phoenix) we arrived to pick up our car and was told they didn't have any and that it could take a few hours to get. The first gentleman was very nice and apologized. He even suggested we check with their competitors. We did, with no luck, so went back to Dollar and the second man was rude and showed no interest in helping us. With no other options, we went down to check in and wait. Luckily, it wasn't long before a car became available. My issue was that I made this reservation months in advance. Dollar should be ready to accommodate those reservations even if that means going to another one of their locations and picking cars up.

Everything was as it can be expected. Low mileage car, practically new. Friendly customer service even at the late time of pick-up.No car as pre-ordered was available, rental was then covered by a different but associated rental company, in our case Thrifty. Available car was the bare-bone basic model.

We liked that we were able to pick it up in PHX and leave it at LAS. The car was clean and very efficient on gas.Not just this one but ALL car rental places try to sell extra insurance for when the car would be out of service in case of an accident. Why not just charge more and stop this ridiculous practice? . Most people have insurance or credit cards that cover in case of accident.

huge price increase from quoteThe Nissan car we ended up with was clean, comfortable, and a smooth ride.The quote I received from Kayak was $179 for a 2 week rental. The nominal rate was $29.98 per week. When I checked in, with tax & fees the quote was approximately $250. When I said I wanted my spouse as an extra driver, they added $13.50 per day plus tax & fees. I was expecting to get a rental for $179. It ended up costing me $467. Furthermore, when I arrived I was given 3 cars to choose from. I picked out a Ford Focus. I loaded all my luggage & began to drive toward the exit. The car hesitated & stalled when I accelerated, so I returned & selected a different car. I placed the keys of the Focus on the dashboard, where they were when I found them. I popped the trunk, stepped out of the car, and closed the drivers door. To my dismay, the doors were locked. I had not pushed the door lock button. I returned to the booth & explained the problem & waited a half hour while a staff person finally arrived and extracted the keys so I could get my backpack out of the back seat. Not a pleasant start to my trip.

When I made it through the 45 minute line with 2 suitcases and wearing a back brace and walking shoe I was told my reservations was not completed when I dropped my car off at San Antonio location! I was stuck in airport 5 hours until I could secure ride to sun city, then had to come in next day to get a car! That was a nightmare! The car and staff were great, other than the Phoenix counter staff upon my arrival, all was pleasant and I believe I will be a return customer.

Pick up was fine--don't typically use Avis so I had to wait in line and they put the hard sale on to accept all the add ons.The car they gave me had a smell of someone who smoked in it prior to me. Although fine, it was not super clean inside. The warning light for service of the rear park aid stayed on during the rental. The rental did the job as I had a hard time finding one but wouldn't use them again unless in a bind.

Long time to find car, had to ask staff for help. Car was 7/8 Full at pick up. Got pink slip from employee after she verified it. Upon return the employee didn’t understand that I was requesting a partial refund. He finally said he couldn’t do anything and directed me to the customer service booth which was vacant but right next to Avis. I finally asked Avis employee for help after I saw Budget logo on his shirt along with Avis. He told me to go into Avis office. Staff was friendly but guy also didn’t understand that I was requesting a partial refund. Eventually, he understood, asked his coworker for help, and left the office to do the refund. he came back and showed me the paperwork which was not a refund but an addition of the refund amount. I caught his mistake and agin consulted with his coworker, disappeared and returned with credit for entire amount of gas I used which was a great touch.

After flying in the line to pick up the vehicle took forever. They were "waiting on vehicles" and we stood in line for over an hour. When we finally got our vehicle, it was blocked in and we didn't have access to it. We had to track down an employee to reassign another vehicle to us. Set us back a few hours on an already short trip.

Got in late and got the car. In the morning noticed there was a message written on the back window about low tire pressure and the tire pressure light came on. Returned the car back to rental agency and got another. That car had a key error. Walked back to rental counter for third car which was dirty but by then we had to leave and deal with it. Would have been better to get an upgrade after two cars given to us had to be returned - a lot of time spent the first morning of vacation on rental cars.

Also it had a tire symbol on the dash indicating one or more tires had low tire pressure.

OKWhen I rented/and paid the car via Kayak, it was noted as "unlimited" miles BUT when I picked up the car, I was told there was a 250 miles limitation per day.Therefore, at our scheduled pick up the vehicle time of 10 PM, I did not have other options but to rent the same vehicle BUT twice the cost!

Staff was horrible. I rent 10-15 cars a year. This was my first time with this company. There staff was rude and disrespectful and after waiting in line for an HOUR to get my rental that I had reserved online I was told they would not rent me a car. Ridiculous! I will never even attempt again!Everything could have been better!

They did not have a vehicle for me when I got there. They upgraded my car for free, but then as I was filing out paperwork, being told, “We have someone watching your car,” another customer walked up and took it. We eventually got a vehicle, but wasn’t super impressed.

When I went to get the vehicle, all the lights were off and I was not able to rent. Stuck in a busy airport with no vehicle.
9.6 Excellent2019 Dec 07
Everything else was good.The lighting was so bad in the underground pick-up "choose a car" area that I felt I was choosing a car by braille. As it happened, I chose a vehicle with damage to the bumper area--which was not stated in my copy of the rental agreement. When I turned the car back in they said that I would be charged for it unless their cameras recorded the pre-existing damage. What a relief to eventually be proven "not guilty"!

We got in very late at night and had to wander around a bit to find a hertz worker. Once we found them check in was easy. The overall price was great!the car (focus sedan) was not to our liking but not really hertz fault. acceleration was odd and front seats were not real comfortable. had we known we would have picked a different car.

HorribleOnce we actually received the car, it was fine.Everything. The Kayak reservation didn't pull up and they tried to charge us double the rate. Last time I book on Kayak or Hertz. From here on out I'm only using the rental car company's website to make reservations. Kayak and Hertz should reevaluate their system compatibility. Also, the wait time was an hour and a half to pick up the car. Just very unpleasant experience all the way around. - Mike

Poor serviceNot much oftuneatektCar was old scratched up and dinged. Heavy additional sales attempt at airport after a long flight on elderly (over 85). Ended up taking another car that was cheaper grade but in better shape but of course hertz charged more. People at hertz in Phoenix airport as bad as it gets. Rented hundreds of cars. They are in a class by themselves.

Didn't meet expectations.Ease of picking up and drop off. Friendly staff.Car's "power outlet" (aka, cigarette lighter) did not work, therefore, we were unable to charge our phones and could not use our own GPS unit. The steering wheel shook after 70 mph, usually signaling bad balance or misalignment. We drove over 1,200 miles this way. Finally, oil change light appeared three days before returning the car.

AAA membership was not honoredI have AAA memebership which entitles me to free spouse driver. However, since it was booked via 3rd party, Kayak, Hertz was adamant about not honoring it. I was not very happy since price through Hertz or AAA direct was also sane as through Kayak. This teaches me not to book through Kayak anymore.

The location and process of getting to NU car was terrible. We had to take a shuttle to the rental car center and then wait an additional 30min in 100 degree heat for a second shuttle that was in poor condition. It was extremely inconvenient and time consuming both on the way there and the return. The vehicle size was also not as aspected. It was much smaller and did not have enough room for the number or passengers and bags that it claimed to hold.

I think Sky Harbor NU car is a little misunderstood. I believe they do a good job of making the best of a bad situation. Yes, their office is off-site from the airport car rental center. That information was made clear in the rental confirmation. We did have to walk to the pickup spot, but it wasn't that long and our wait for pickup to the office was less than ten minutes. Yes, the office is bare-bones and in a sketchy part of town, but we felt perfectly safe and the office was clean and set up to handle the extraordinary number of customers they move through there every day. Expect the representatives to move you through quickly, no banter or small talk. Sure they will try to upsell you on insurance, but don't all the rental companies do that? Our car was ready and waiting, and we did a walk-around while the representative took pictures of the vehicle from every angle, which were emailed to us. I liked that. Our car was a Nissan Versa with 35,000 miles, not great but it was clean and it ran just fine the entire trip. From the time we walked in the office door till the time we pulled off the lot was less than 20 minutes. Returning it took less than 10 minutes. Overall, our experience with NU car was way better than expected, based on all the negative reviews. My advice, do your homework, know what you're getting into, be patient and I think you'll find it's a pretty efficient and well-run operation.

Went to pick up the car at the car rental bldg. in phx airport, and they were not in there. You had to walk with your luggage about 1/4 mile only to wait for a shuttle from NU. After 25 minutes a car came to pick us up. Took us to some place in downtown phoenix. The service counter was the worst. Finally after an hour we got the car. OMG it was beat up, dented, and made a terrible noise. We unfortunately took it. It was dirty inside and out. One week later we had a flat tire due to scraping of the rim. Called to take it back and they gave us another car. Worst company on earth... You may save money but its not worth it.

Rental was good but location was inconvenient. We had to get a shuttle from the airport to the car rental terminal than get another shuttle from the rental terminal to Nu Car location. Allow at least an hour of waiting for shuttles. When dropping off the rental we just got a cab back to the airport

Had to take a shuttle from the airport terminal to car rental like normal. When I arrived at the car rental area I was informed I had to go make a 500yd walk out of the car rental center premises to wait for another shuttle. After 30 minutes of waiting a Nu Car Shuttle arrived to take us 10 minutes even further from the airport to the “rental center”. We stepped off the shuttle to a vacant building with temporary signage everywhere saying “Nu Car Rental”. I walked inside to find a building that resembled a cell phone store but 90% empty. Make shift desks were lined up and wires everywhere so they could have their phones and computers working. The pick up process took forever, like 15mins per person, causing us to lose another hour of our time. Thankfully there weren’t many people there. I know this has been mostly negative to this point but things were positive the rest of the way. Vehicle was fine, checked it over with the rep for damage before we left and they gave me peace of mind in terms of not getting screwed over that way. Drop off was a similarly easy experience… but still had to either wait 20mins for their shuttle which would require then another shuttle at the actual car rental place, opted for an Uber
2.0 Mediocre2022 Feb 14
Nu Car closes at 4pm in PHX and the pick up is NOT at rental facility like it states when renting, you have to take ground transport to their facilities but we couldn’t even do that since we arrived in PHX at 545 and they close at 4, what rental car company closes at 4? Had to walk up for my rental at another company and hoping one was available and in my budget.

Over the top service and excellent vehicle choice.We somehow got a special price on this rental, that being said, the service from staff, pick up, drop off and shuttle to and from the air were all first class. Very high tech coordination with the car unlocking when we got to the rental center. Included were satellite radio, navigation and surprisingly gas mileage over 40 mpg on the highway. This is a great rental opportunity for many.There was the fact that the car was an Audi Quattro, so smaller than I would normally rent, compared to my Ford Edge, but I cannot complain about anything.

Top tips for renting a car at Phoenix Sky Harbor Intl Airport

  • When you reserve a car rental at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, you will have a reliable and comfortable way to explore the city. While Phoenix does have its own transportation system, it is limited and does not widely connect the city. One of the most convenient ways to explore the region is by driving, as you can stick to your own schedule and head to your own destination whenever you like, rather than depending on the local bus. It will also make it easier for you to travel with luggage or sports equipment.
  • There are a few rental car companies that are particularly easy to use, including popular national brands such as Alamo, Hertz, and SIXT. All three of these companies will allow you to make your reservation ahead of time, making the pick-up process quick and simple. They also offer no-contact returns even outside of their business hours, so you can drop your vehicle off whenever works best for you.
  • If you are ready to return your car rental at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, you can bring it back to the same place that you first picked up your vehicle. All companies keep their fleets directly on airport property, within walking distance of the main terminal. To find the exact location where you will need to drop off your Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport car rental, look for the airport’s signs that will guide you towards the drop-off area. Once you have left the car, you can finish up any outstanding paperwork with your rental company.
  • Phoenix is a bustling business hub and a popular destination for travelers, so it tends to have traffic. If you don’t want to get stuck in any congestion, try to avoid picking up or returning your car rental at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport during rush hour, which is typically when people are headed to and from work in the mornings and evenings. Certain roads near the airport can get particularly busy, such as Interstates 10 and 60.
