Good

The additional driver didn't have a credit card, and they wouldn't let us pick up the car at the airport. Later, we managed to use my credit card at a city office. It was a bit troublesome.

At Los Angeles Airport, I was inexplicably charged an additional $30 for roadside assistance despite clearly requesting no additional services. They also did not specifically inform me about this charge. I mentioned that I might return the car two hours later than scheduled, and the staff assured me that extending the return time to 4 PM would be fine with no extra cost. However, when I returned the car near San Francisco, I was charged over $40 extra for returning late. I called AVIS to inquire, but they said there was nothing they could do since I had signed without reading the details. Originally, the rental cost was around $80, but I ended up being charged over $70 more, almost doubling the price. This experience was extremely disappointing and felt deliberately deceptive. This is not my first time renting from AVIS, but the experience was so poor that it merits a very negative review.

On August 6th, we arrived at Bozeman Airport from Miami to pick up a car from the AVIS store. The clerk informed us that the originally reserved mid-size car was unavailable, so they gave us a smaller Kia and refunded over $100 for the price difference. However, after completing the paperwork and taking the keys to the parking lot, we were shocked to find a Kia Soul, whose trunk couldn't even fit a 28-inch suitcase. We returned to the store to negotiate with the clerk again. After waiting for nearly an hour, we finally got a Chevrolet similar to a Malibu.

Picked up the car in the morning, service attitude was acceptable.
