RIGHT CARS CAR RENTAL REVIEWS IN NEW ZEALAND

All went well except, car was almost empty on pick up, no worries though, after phoning and letting staff know, it was ok to drop off car empty as well. Only trouble was drop off. No one was there at office to drive the shuttle to airport as was part of deal. After phoning staff I was promised to be shuttled to airport within half an hour. No one came, another phone call followed and a promise of 15 min. Nothing happened. Had to call UBER and pay additionally. Thought it a good thing to support smaller businesses, but gotta beware of their reliability.

Good car good service

All was great. Customer service was fantastic

No issues with Right Cars when I found their location.

Counter staff member Tim was excellent

The rental staff were extremely friendly and communicative in English. They agreed to let us return the car later and even gave us a free ride to the airport. They also helped us deal with a parking ticket. Really appreciate it!

The company's 8-seater was a bit small, so they gave us two Nissan 5-seaters instead, with no price change.

OK

OK

Our flight information changed the morning we were leaving the USA for our trip, which was two days before we attempted to pick up the car. I called right cars, knowing there was a time difference and it was late at night in New Zealand, however I wanted to confirm the change in pickup time as soon as I found out the flight information changed. We were originally to land around 1pm, and it changed to land at 11pm. A man answered who said he was working from home, and I told him I wanted to make sure we could pick up when we landed even if it was at night outside of office hours. He confirmed, saying that he was going to be on shift at that time. When we landed, I called for the shuttle and the same man told me no one was there, that I was supposed to pick up the car at 11am THE NEXT DAY. I told him that I could not come back the next day, that I specifically checked with him that i could pick it up at night and he insisted that the pickup time was set for 11am. I told him to cancel the car, and went to an airport desk to rent a car that I could take straightaway. When I called to get a refund the next day, I was told I had to go through the booking company. I called and was told I was marked a no-show, so I could not get a refund. I called the owner of Right Cars and he said he would have to do some investigating, but I have heard nothing since.

The unlock button on the key fob for my car did not work, which I wasn’t told about when picking up the car. It led to the car alarm going off every time I manually unlocked the car. Luckily I sorted it out myself, but would have liked more help from the car rental on this.

Best price I found and easy booking. Would have liked the price drop if available, but still a good experience overall.

The car itself was fine; drove well, no issues. The only problem was the fact that everything was in Japanese and it hadn't been switched 9ver yet despite having over 150,000 kilometers logged.

I waited for nearly 2 hours to be picked up from the airport. The phone line went straight to a voicemail and I had to contact head office in Christchurch and speak to the company manager for anything to happen.

Easy to book through. Great prices

Car was ok, service was terrible. Waited 45 mins for pickup when I was told 15. No paper to print out rental agreement.

Light on fuel

Mobli app is not easy enough to organise pick up at airport

Véhicule usagé, 160000 km, temps d'attente tres long et le lieu de lrise en charge etait différent de celui d'origine.

We waited a long time to be picked up from the airport, not entirely Right cars fault, but when we arrived to get the car my husband had to move a dumpster that was blocking the car, the car was nearly brand new and in great condition until you opened up the car and it had a HORRIBLE fish odor it was so strong our clothes smelled like fish after riding in it. we were a group of 7 and there were not other options for us, so we took the fish mobile.

!!!!!Poor service from hire car company. Car had old bottles and other customers paperwork (from May 2019) in it. Was supposed to be full to full but wasn't. Phone charger didn't work. Satnav was in Japanese (for japan) but couldn't be switched off so had a running Japanese dialogue. But worst was that the renter announced as we left that he would not be there on the day we drop it off, so we had to arrange our own taxi (at our expense) to the airport! It was not clear where to leave the key, I still haven't had confirmation that all was ok (despite leaving a note and emailing them) and not be able to confirm that our deposit would be refunded. We were supposed to be using the same company (spicy cars) when we come back to the north island but plan to cancel.... poor service.

Fine
