Renting A Car - Answers To Frequent Questions

When you rent a car it may happen that suddenly it does not work properly

any longer. What should be done in such circumstance? The very first thing

to do would be to call the company that you rented the car from. The

contact number of the rent a car company can be found on the company’s

webpage.

The people you will be talking to should be prepared to advise you exactly

what to do. In fact, this is a question you should ask the rent a car company

before you pick the car and leave.

One of the things that you need to decide is what car type you need to rent.

This should be set depending on the purpose you rent the car for. If you

plan to go in the mountains, with your partner and the kids, than you may

need a 4x4, which is a powerful, strong car, capable of getting you in good

condition wherever you may want to go.

On the other hand, if you plan to go to a business meeting, alone, then, the

car you need will be a different one. If you cannot make up your mind, there

is still the possibility to be advised by the rent a car agency representative.

This person is a well trained individual who will ask you some questions in

order to understand what your needs are. Then he will recommend you

what he considers to be the fit choice for your case.

Another possible inquiry you may have is if you are allowed to get an

upgrade once you get to the pickup location. It may sometimes be possible

but you should never count on that. Specialists advise you should decide on

the car ahead of time and book it as soon as possible. This way you will be

sure the needed car is ready and waiting for you and your family.

Even if you are car insured you are responsible for the car while he is in

your hands. Any damage or scratch that is found once you bring the car

back to the rent a car agency will be considered your fault and you will be

asked to pay for fixing them.

This is why it is so very important to make sure you examine the car well

before your pick it up. Take also some photos that might be very useful later

on. Take good care of the interior while you drive the car because any proof

of spilling coffee or juice will mean more money out of your pocket.

Ask the company, before you go, if you need to return the car with the tank

filled or not. It is wiser and cheaper to get the gasoline form a gas station

than to pay the rent a car agency the money for the gasoline. Usually they

charge more compared to a gas station. So, a simple question can save you

some precious money.

If you do have other questions related to the renting process, you may find

good answers for them on different discussion forums where people share

their experience. No matter if you live in Europe or not, the Thrifty Cluj

Romania car rental website also includes a blog that posts free, useful,

related information on a regular basis.
