Absolutely terrible service. The order placed in China was completely invalid locally. Upon arrival at Mexico City Airport, I was charged an additional $1200 for insurance, one-way rental, and other miscellaneous fees, which I had already paid through Zuzuche in China. I hope friends who see my comment avoid renting from this company in Mexico.
