### 1/5 — Be aware of rentals in hawaii

### 1/5 — Trash lately

*2026-06-13, version 2026.23*

It keeps crashing, please fix.

### 1/5 — Buggy App and Terrible Experience

*2026-05-05, version 2026.17*

Logging in is a nightmare. The mobile experience is a buggy, inconsistent, and unreliable experience. Clicking forget password send you an email with a link that never works. And even if you manage to make a reservation, the links in the reservation email never works either. 100% never recommend!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t reset my password!

*2026-04-19, version 2026.15*

Been trying for four days and can’t get a working link to reset my password. The website will not send me a reset link. The app sends a link that doesn’t work! The phone number rings busy every time I call! Right now, on the app, it won’t even take you to the sign screen!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-12-25, version 2025.50*

They do not Accept ANY insurance and make you pay an additional 45 a day for their insurance. They also make you pay 15 per day for sun pass and cannot use your own. We were an hour late for our car reservation waiting for THEIR shuttle, in which they charged an additional 25 to reopen “the file”. Do NOT use this rental company. If I could give negative review I would.

### 1/5 — Car Insurance Hoax

*2025-12-13, version 2025.49*

The insurance you sign up for with Carrentals.com is not the required liability insurance in Mexico. The site is not clear about that.

### 1/5 — Highest prices on this app ! I’m deleting

*2025-12-10, version 2025.49*

Highest prices !

### 1/5 — Misleading

*2025-08-14, version 2025.31*

Until recently, when the “total price” was shown with search results, that was the ACTUAL TOTAL PRICE. They have changed it to where the “total price” is extremely misleading and once you choose an option, the “total price” skyrockets. Please change this back. This used to be a great app.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work!

*2025-08-04, version 2024.41*

Waste of time! App does t open, nothing works on app! Better to login to website than waste time with app!

### 1/5 — Poor information

*2025-06-27, version 2025.24*

They don’t inform you you , you need a credit card once you get to the rental car place

### 1/5 — Log in keeps crashing

*2025-03-29, version 2025.12*

Please fix this
