The customer service guy was really responsible. He first asked if we were safe, then started the troubleshooting. He followed the instructions to check if the issue could be resolved, and when it didn't work, he arranged a tow truck. He also offered us a hotel if we preferred. We chose to stay with the vehicle. His English was not perfect, but he tried his best to make sure I understood. His name might have been Matt or Mike...

The service was pretty good

There were cars available in the same group but they only offered them after charging extra.

I booked a Grand Cherokee or a similar large SUV, but ended up with a relatively new Nissan X-Trail. The Alamo staff didn't allow us to use the parked cars because they were considered a different class. Haha... Anyway, the X-Trail I got was quite new and in good condition, but it felt underpowered in the US.

Renting the car was quick. There were quite a few people, but the process was short. After a few brief questions, we could pick up the car. The parking lot was huge, with various types of cars. Since I had a reservation, I went straight to my car and drove off. It was a yellow Camaro, a soft-top convertible. The interior had a pleasant scent and was very clean, almost like a new car.
