About car : Adaptive cruise control with lane assist to keep you safe for your long drives . His response was super quick for all my clarifications and he even went above board and approved our request when we wanted to reduce our trip by a day due to changes in our hotel reservation. Pickup was easy and super quick and car was ready well before our pickup time. We even parked our car overnight in street parking in front of Charles home while we picked up our car . Drop off was as easy as pickup . I will use again if I’m in Detroit with n future .
Derrick was a considerate host. He brought the truck in great good condition. It drives well and amazing on gas (gas prices are ridiculously now). He was easy to get a hold of and allowed me to modify the trip easily.
I love Turo! I have low credit, so everytime I rent a car I have to put down a security deposit. Plus since I have no credit card, I dont even qualify for high end vehicles like f 150s and big SUVs. Also since it's the summer after covid restrictions, all rental companies doubled their rates! Turo saved my vacation and gave me an affordable alternative and everything worked out great! This will be the wave of the future! Thank you turo!
This was my first experience with absolutely marvelous service with an amazing automobile selected. I highly recommend that more people should try this service before heading to the same old standard rental companies waiting in long lines and encountering unnecessary delays and unavailable vehicles seeking to rent. Everything was so easy and smoothly
FIRST TIME TURO DRIVER: Livid is AMAZING. I booked with Livid a month early. My original reservation was cancelled by Turo (at midnight, the night before pickup) because of a last minute (literally) safety recall by Jeep. My family and I were forced to find a new reservation (for twice the price) with less than 24h before our trip was to start. The recall was just as much of a surprise to Livid as it was to us. Her team got everything settled on the same day and was able to get us back into her Jeep at the original booking cost. I can’t say enough how fantastic this service was. Every time I fly back to Detroit, Livid will be my Go-To Host!! There aren’t enough stars to rate it fairly. 100 billion stars!
Brandon was amazing. It was a last minute booking and he went above and beyond to make sure I got my reservation on time, clean and ready to go. Very friendly and responsive. Would definitely recommend and rent again.
Jenae was awesome, communication, pick up time and location we’re all on time. The telluride rode smooth, no issues at all. I will highly recommend and rent from Jenae again
This kia was in great condition. Very clean. My pick up was simple and quick. Janae responded quickly and was pleasant. This was me and my families first time using turo. I hope every host is close to our first one. Also I do want to mention that rental car prices are so high right now. But turo helped us to find something similar to what we have and it was within our budget. Thank you.
This is my third time (I think) renting with Nataki and it's because working with her is always stellar! Her response rate was 5-star, and her vehicle gave a great ride. Whenever I need a vehicle in the Detroit-area, I intentionally go with Nataki!
Suv was just what I needed,everything was great except car needed a wash,did that and everything was great in wonderland.will rent from Eric again.
The Wrangler is a great car and rode nice on the highway. My only complaint would be the premium gas it requires during this spike in prices wasn’t ideal for a road trip. The host was great. Kind of slow on responding though.
Amazing trip back home to Detroit. Gregory and company have amazing customer service and ensure renters have the best possible experience. Because of this impeccable customer service experience, Turo and Gregory will be exclusive to my future trips to the 313. Thanks!
