After returning the car, we rented another one and wasted several hours at LA Thrifty fighting for our rights. I urge all Chinese people not to rent from this company. They unjustifiably refuse to accept Chinese driving licenses and their service attitude is terrible. Many Chinese people have been denied rentals, disrupting their travel plans. It seems highly likely to be racial discrimination. Let's support our country and fight back together!

Short wait time. The rental company staff provided specific introductions to the services but also did a lot of upselling, including vehicle upgrades, insurance, and toll packages.

Returned the car without a full tank and got a huge fine. The car provided was very small, not sure if it was the model I reserved, but it was quite fuel-efficient.

The staff at the counter used hard sell methods to try and force / convince me to buy additional liability insurance. The staff lied directly to my face claiming I would have ZERO liability insurance if I don't get Liability Insurance Supplemental (LSI). As the name already implies LSI is additional (supplemental) insurance. This is optional because the rental company is already required by state law to ensure at least minimum required liability insurance. This would have added additional 40% to my total rental cost !! I had to vigorously refuse several times until the counter staff reluctantly -- and still insisting I would be at extreme risk without any liability insurance -- gave in and finally let me leave. Apart from this rude and quite threatening behavior, the vehicle was also in rather poor condition: - very high mileage (over 33,000 miles) and dirty interior - vehicle tire maintenance warning active from start of rental, so clearly the required checks and repairs were not performed during vehicle return processing - I literally had to demand that staff at vehicle handover join me in inspecting the vehicle to record any existing damage. I will NEVER AGAIN rent from this company.
