12 Things You Should *Never* Do When Renting a Car Abroad

10. Forgetting to Check the Rental Company’s Reputation

Not all rental companies offer the same level of service and reliability. Choosing a company based solely on price can lead to poor customer service, hidden fees, or unreliable vehicles. Before booking, research the rental company's reputation by reading online reviews and seeking recommendations from fellow travelers. Look for companies with a proven track record of transparency, good customer service, and well-maintained vehicles. A reputable rental company will provide clear terms and conditions, responsive support, and a fleet of reliable cars, ensuring a smoother rental experience.
