Kia Sportage 2019

This was my FIRST time using Turo. And I will definitely be back! Picking up the car from the airport was easy and close, details to getting the keys were easy, the owner kept the car very clean and I appreciated that! Driving off the driveway the car had all working features (brakes, lights, turn signals, mirrors, windows). The AC was cold and the heat when it was colder was warm. The only thing was the windshield wipes being a little streaky when it rained (rare for AZ) but they did the job! I really had no issues with the vehicle at all, and I used it for 5 days to visit family in AZ. The owner was very responsive when I needed to extend another day just 2 days before I was due to return. The process, price point, the car itself was ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
