Such a bad experience my review will not even post! Figures their site is as horrible as their rental cars. If you value your life don’t call budget

Wish I could give negative stars. Arrived in NJ for my husband funeral. Picked up my rental they gave me the wrong car, before I left the person checking cars sent me back to get the right class car. We left and when we were on Rt. 611 in PA the car hydoplaned and we almost crashed. We realized the tires were so bald, the car was 1700 miles over due for service and the brakes were bad that when you hit them the steering wheel shook so bad. We had a very tight schedule and could not make the 2 hour trip back to exchange the vehicle. This was a horrible rental experience that cost we over $600 for 5 days in a death trap. I have pictures and video if you would like to see them..

If you are paying at the counter, make sure you understand the charges and DO NOT depend on the Agent. I declined all extra charges, but the Agent, Sharlene at Newark Liberty International Airport, charged me for insurance. I have learned that Agents get a commission for selling insurance. As a senior citizen, I believe Sharlene took advantage of me.

I will be filing a formal complaint! I am extremely disappointed as a fast break member and a loyal customer at the way things were handled by budget! I received this rental consistent with a Geoco insurance claim as an insurance replacement vehicle, I provided the claim number and the Geico insurance rental code at the time of pickup. Thereafter i received an email from loss prevention indicating that the car was due back on 9/27 suggesting that I have absconded with the vehicle and that they would be contacting the authorities. My car is still being repaired and I have provided all of the necessary documentation. Why would the first communication be from loss prevention and not from the branch just confirming I still have the vehicle. Incredibly disrespectful and disheartening. Furthermore i attempted to contact the branch directly but was only able to speak to someone off site with them not able to contact the branch either. Unprofessional!

How do you get a live person at budget Newark. Keeps going to agent elsewhere when calling there number., when office is open.

Wayne J Freeman | Jan 10, 2022
Mary Farrell | Jan 10, 2022

Don't rent from them. I rented a car for 8days. Took me 1 hr of driving I circles to found the return lot. Than after a week home, I received a email from them, accusing me of not returning the car. It went on for weeks. I suggested not renting at the airport. Good luck 👍

dropped off car at 4:30 AM in Newark airport for a 6:00AM flight. No rep available. How can I tell if car was properly credited to me???

Ernie Zuberer | Jan 10, 2022
David Weinstock | Jan 10, 2022

If you drop the keys off once they open they will scan the car and the system will send you an email. Once you get it, make sure the number is correct and otherwise you can call them.

I'm returning a car. Website says Budget is open until midnight. If I arrive after that, is there a drop box for the key?

Janet Baptista | Oct 7, 2021
Thomas Nesbit | Oct 7, 2021

Yes they have a drop box but remember, you are responsible for the car until they retrieve the key in thr morning.

Just have your passport just in case with your license. Always better to be prepared than sorry.

I have plenty of luggage with 2 kids. Would you have a cart which can be used to carry the luggage using air rail?

Jarvis me | Oct 7, 2020
James Sheridan | Oct 7, 2020

I did not see one when i was there. I dont think so.

when returning car and having lots of luggage; does it make sense to drop off luggage at terminal before returning car?

hesh stern | Oct 7, 2020
Nick Martin Breuer | Oct 7, 2020

First dropping of the luggage than bringing back the car, I would say no, because you can go buy bus or little train to the gate at the airport. Thank you for asking

Hello help me with something what is the warranty of the car to rent or some whatsaap number to consult

Maria Fernanda Triana Chiriboga | Oct 8, 2019
Scott Lackey | Oct 8, 2019

If you are asking about which car model, you are only guaranteed the type of car you reserved. Make sure you book online in advance. Insurance you should buy from the rental agency you should get unless your personal insurance or credit card has built in rental car insurance.

How do I cancel a car reservation?

Paradise City Costumes | Oct 8, 2019
Bili Esuola | Oct 8, 2019

Call, for courtesy sake, to cancel the reservation. Even if you have given them your card details, they will not take your money if you do not take any vehicle.

Hi. We are a Spaniard family (4 people) that need a medium-sized car from Sept 19th to Sept 29th, to be picked up/leave in Newark Airport Airport

Fernando de Andrés Gastón | Oct 8, 2019
Scott Lackey | Oct 8, 2019

I would recommend booking a full size sedan and not a medium sized sedan. Another good option would be a mid sized suv. Both will have enough space for your luggage, but suv will be the safest bet.

Manuela Aragon | Oct 8, 2019
Emilio Lluberes | Oct 8, 2019

You ask for the car seat when you arrive at the counter

We won't be arriving at the Newark airport for pick up. Do we need to make special arrangements to be able to pick up the car since we won't be coming through the arrival hall? How can we pick up the car if we are coming from NYC by taxi?

Amy Habig | Oct 8, 2019
Rev Devine Ward | Oct 8, 2019

You still go to the car rental... Drive in, as if you are returning a vehicle. It can be a bit daunting, as there are loads of cement bollards. If you make a mistake, just keep going round, it will bring you back.

What time does cars have to be returned?

serena arroyo | Oct 8, 2018
John Reddan | Oct 8, 2018

The time is stated on your rental agreement although you can adjust a bit later (same day) or as much earlier as you want. You definitely want to be returning the car at least 2 hours before your flight time at Newark because of how slow the security lines are.

Leny Apaga | Oct 8, 2018
Robin Pearson | Oct 8, 2018

It varies. Look it up online sometimes you will find great deals. I did back in December.
