    The selection and prices are much better compared to rental car agencies. In this unprecedented time, supporting the independent workers of the US economy is crucial. The quality Turo has added to my travels is beyond description here in this review, and the level of customer service Is unmatched by the corporate players.

    Turo is really good and convenient. They response quickly and professionally. They also have really nice cars and very affordable and the hosts are so nice as well. Would recommend Turo to all my friends and family. Although there are some hosts that are not nice because they ask what nationality you're from and if you tell them that you're from this place they will say, "Sorry we rented the car," so yeah maybe Turo needs to let the hosts know not to be racist when renting out their cars to individuals that are wanting to rent cars. If you are looking to rent a car from Turo, and you're in the Big Island of Hawaii search for Ethan Piano’s cars. This host is very friendly and professional. Would recommend renting from Ethan if you visit Kailua Kona Hawaii. Thank you Turo.

    The van fit our needs for the trip. Everything went very smooth. The only thing that surprised me was that we had to wash and vacuum the vehicle or pay $50 extra and pay $19 to get it out of the parking lot. I didn’t see that upfront. It may have been on the page somewhere but I didn’t see it if it was. No big deal.

    I started hosting on a Turo less than a month ago. Everything was going well up until the first damage claim on the third rental. The vehicle was returned and pictures were taken accordingly based on what the app requires. Unfortunately it rains a lot and frequently, so I wasn’t able to clean the car immediately. A few days later when it stopped raining, I noticed two things. First the stains on the leather seats were not coming out. Also discovered the rim had been damaged likely from hitting a curb. I contacted Turo in regard to the permanent stains on the seats, to determine how to proceed with a cleaning fee. I was advised that since it was just over 36 hours later, there was nothing I could do. Even though there had been proper pictures of both the seats before and after the trip.

    It’s unfortunate as instead of trying to get the stains out first by a normal cleaning process, Turo requires that you report and charge them immediately? Clearly being nice to the customer and trying to clean first is not the process they want, poor customer service in my opinion. Next problem was with the rim and after noticing it, I immediately reported it to Turo. This also had clear pictures that were uploaded before after the trip immediately. Unfortunately I didn’t notice the damage immediately since the vehicle was dirty and couldn’t clean it due to the pouring rain. I then receive a call from Turo advising that damage claims need to be reported within 24 hours. I wasn’t aware of this either since they don’t explicitly tell this to you during the setup process.

    Unfortunately I found this out too late as well. Also their own website says within 24 hours or may not be approved, isn’t that implying they still process over 24 hour claims? Second the lady who spoke with me even confirmed the damage was done by the renter and yet still doesn’t process the claim? Basically the vandalism and destruction of my property is confirmed and they still don’t care. I would not rent my vehicle on Turo or rent a vehicle on Turo.

    Hi my name is Jae-Analyn **. I reserved a 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport from a host on Turo from 8 AM on August 7, 2020 until 11 PM on August 9, 2020. The reservation covered 600 miles. I initially started the car at 77,940. The car had an initial maintenance check displayed on dashboard at initial pickup. I thought it was just because it may not have been reset. I took the car about 200 miles that day and it had trouble shifting but nothing major. The next day I took it about another 175 miles but the RPM began to rise several times trying to get to 45 MPH. On Sunday August 9, 2020, I planned to take the car back as I was worried about the issues from the day prior. I left the house I was staying at 2:30 PM. The RPM began to rise to 4 at a speed of 45 MPH.

    I pulled over and turned the car off and waited for the car to cool down. I started the car and about 10 miles later I reached a light where the car refused to drive. I turned the car off and restarted to take it to a gas station near Route 87 and Hunt Highway to be towed. I lost my last day’s worth on the rental because of these issues. I was told I could get a credit for $50 toward the cost of an Uber, Taxi or Lyft. Due to the distance between my destination, that would not have covered the cost. I had to push back reservations for a family dinner and had to sit and wait in the heat. I proceeded to look at reviews on the host and found a review on the same car having similar issues and needing towed previously. Therefore the seller knew about such issues and still rented the car out.

    I am very disappointed because transmission issues can leave you in very bad predicaments. The rental cars should be able to pass a certain inspection before being rented out. I used a little less than 400 miles, therefore I did not get to use the miles or days I paid for. I am upset that I was not made aware that this car has had prior issues. The owner did not offer me any compensation or apologize for my troubles.

    My car was impounded for 30 days TWICE! I am a Turo host and I have had my cars impounded twice, the delays of impounding were 30 days. Turo refused to charge the guests for the time the cars were impounded because it is not in their policy to charge guest when they have hosts' cars impounded by the police. I was therefore stuck with no car for those times, and I still had car payments to make (1400$ per month), paying the impound fees, dealing with the police, etc. Ultimately, Turo never called back because customer service cannot deal with this sort of thing and the request must be 'escalate' and it is not in Turo's policy to charge guests for the days the car is impounded.

    I use Turo as an alternative to rental companies, but in my experience, it doesn't not entirely do much better than them. What I like: straightforward pricing and the ability to choose from many more interesting cars. What I do not like is that hosts can cancel and they can do so at nearly the last minute. This has happened to me on multiple occasions now and it is very stressful. I was about to board my flight to my destination where the Turo was booked and I got notification that my trip was cancelled. What made this worse was Turo then suggested alternate rides and all of them were more money. In this moment, Turo *should* have immediately waived any price differential, but they did not. I had to call and spend 20 minutes or so with a less-than-ideal customer service rep.

    Lastly, the ride I ended up with was marketed as an airport pickup vehicle, but the lot it was in was actually 1 mile away without any transportation options to reach it. Upon arriving I had to wait for the host to respond to remotely unlock. The whole process was from the cancelled ride to the check-in procedure was entirely stressful. I will use Turo again because I like getting to check out interesting rides when I travel, but I will certainly think about booking with a traditional rental agency in future.

    It was very easy and convenient to use the Turo app to rent a car!! The only reason I checked 4 stars instead of 5 is because I feel like the final rental price for a car is pretty ridiculous that they have to double up on the price it initially shows! If it says $34 then that's what It should be plus the sales tax and whatever extras but it should not come out to double that plus extras and sales tax. I just think that's a little misleading..

    Disclaimer: I'm a skeptic. I'm sure people have good experiences but Turo doesn't seem right for me and here's why. How you do one thing is how you do everything. Early July, I decide I will try to rent a truck from turo to help move a couple big objects. I knew I needed it a couple weeks out and figured I'd be able to finish the booking the day I signed up. That wasn't the case. After multiple attempts to check out, I eventually find out somehow that my account needs to go through a verification process (checkout just kept saying there was an error). This verification is more than just confirm your email, but it's actually uploading documents. I wanted to call to understand what was needed but after lots of digging through turo webpages and calling a number, I get sent with a text to a link to a chat with a agent.

    Red flag #1: you can't actually talk to them. It's all chat based. So I'm on a chat and I am told I need to email 2 photos: one of just my license showing the last 4 numbers as well as one of me holding my license next to my face. Red flag #2: after redacting the license numbers in the photo of me and the license, I am told they need to see all the numbers (now it's not just the 4 like the first photo). Okay, fine. gets emailed anyways.

    I made sure while I was on the chat they confirmed they received the photos properly. It is email after all, not exactly the most secure form of uploading. But what do I know, it's not like my job is working with secure data. (It is) so! Documents are uploaded, ready to go right? Let's get this truck! No. I keep logging in every couple days to see if my account has been approved to drive. Still nothing. THREE WEEKS go by (another red flag?), finally I get another email from support now asking to send "Please attach non-scanned photos directly to this email. Send clear, close-up photos of: The payment card(s) ending in #### that you have uploaded on Turo. Please note that the last 4 digits, the expiration date, the name, and all four corners of the card(s) need to be visible. See an example here."

    Red flag #4: now you need a photo of my credit card? At this point, even if I still wanted to have rented that truck, it's too late based on when I needed it. I can't imagine someone who wanted to rent a car in an area they didn't live in. Conclusion: 2 stars. 1 star added giving Turo the benefit of the doubt, after all, they've been around for 10 years now apparently with no one else raising hell about this process.

    But never have I had such an archaic form of verification. Emailing photos? 3+ weeks to verify me? What is this? The NSA? Why Turo can't just match names on license to name on credit card is beyond me. And topping it all off, I don't want to deal with a chat based customer service when something really goes wrong. Remember this was just me trying to get my account approved. I'm no felon. Never have I had to jump through so many hoops just to spend money.

    Imagine what it would be like if I need to get in touch with them regarding something more serious like a bad rental or needing a refund or anything where the money is leaving their bank account going into yours. I have since asked for confirmation that photos have been deleted off their servers and I closed my account. Thanks turo, but not for me.

    There is whole segment of people who used to target Enterprise and now they rent from Turo hosts and never return your vehicle. They rent your 2020 Range Rover, and never come back. You certainly can't call no one on turo, and most their communication is done through chatline through countries where they don't even speak English so it's hard to communicate. Then after 4 hours of anguish they tell you to go fill up paperwork with police and wait to see what happens. Turo does absolutely nothing about it, telling you to call the renter again, and it is embezzlement not grand theft, so no one can even press any charges even if you are lucky and your car is found.

    Most of the time there will be chopped leftover parts here and there of course, but in my case, guy kept the car for 2 month and did drugs, ate and defecated in my new car. Of course they don't pay for any of this, or the condition the vehicle is, calling it wear and tear. And the fact that they withhold 40% of my earnings for premium insurance, when it came to pay out for wear and tear and lost earnings, through technicality it came to $75 so all the guarantees were lies.

If your car in an accident and Turo was not convinced to pay you, which is most the cases, I had a few incidents they tried to push back on me and run away with not paying. You may get up to a $2000 fee from Turo that your claim is not legit. Means your car is damaged and you are worried now that Turo may charge you money on top of that. They tell you when you signup with their insurance you will get a replacement car if your car was in an accident, that is not true. They only give you $300 credit to rent from their website, even if your car takes two months to fix. They offer loss of hosting income, that is also a trick, they count how much you made the whole year divided by the months and pay you jokes.

    The problem with Turo anyone can take your car even with a fake ID, Turo they don't check people's identity, and they don't verify VIN numbers. Try to list a rebuilt car with Turo, you will easily get it to rent the second day because Turo they don't care about people's safety. Be careful a lot of hidden tricks, I been using Turo for three years and finally, I took all my cars off. It's not worth it anymore. I can go on and on and on... Long story short, you are on your own here, and if you don't care about your car and got a lot of time to waste with no income, go for it. Turo will not care about you, your safety, or your car. You will have a totaled car and not one to talk to on the phone, you will submit a claim on their phone app and it takes days before they get back to you.

    Hi All, I am a host with Turo. On the face of it Turo's platform seems rosy and simple but wait till you have issues! They are very sly when it comes to customer support. At first you won't be able to find the contact information to their so called "24 Hours" support. Once you do find a number to call upon they direct to you text messaging with a rep. They then direct to you some other department your issues. It is quite the journey to get to someone that you might think will help resolve your issue, but they really don't. Turo system is rigged to only favor them, whilst you are risking your very expensive vehicle.

    For Guest: When you see the breakdown of charges on your final receipt you will see actual charge of the rental followed by charges for Fluff, fluff, fluff, and more fluff. It's shocking to see they charge so much for running the platform smoothly and claim to provide customer support. I had an issue with cancellation of a trip, I have strictly mentioned I need 2 days prior to booking my vehicle. A guest requested to pre-pone the trip to which of course I did not want to accept. Anyways, here is where their trickery kicks-in, the notification on your phone doesn't show the details of the change request - just that the guest has requested a change. Do you accept or reject. The dates of the rental are stricken off, and the two buttons to accept or reject are adjacent making very easy to go either ways.

    I accidentally accepted the changes and that's when I found out the the actual change that was requested by the guest, obviously I couldn't accept the change so I was left no choice but to cancel. For Turo this become much more interesting as they charge $50 fee for adjustments as I "cancelled" the trip at the last moment and posts a automated review on profile. Mind you, I had no intention to accept the changes to begin with had I properly known what is it that the guest was requesting. I called the customer support and explained what happened after spending a long time in getting connected with the "right" person.

    The customer service rep. wasn't helpful and kept shoving scripted responses to my issues with no definitive answer or resolution. She goes to say they will investigate the issue and will determine what happens next, I asked, "Will you inform me?" She had to no straight answer. It is like they decide and finalize what happens to your profile and you have no say in it.

    Turo expects Guests and Hosts to follow their protocols to the letter to which I have no problem. But they never spend time educating the platform users to what extent do they support user of the platform and how to contact them. They've made it very difficult to find the customer support and when you do they are certainly unable and unequipped to resolve the customer issues. I would recommend the traditional way to renting cars or try some other platform.

    Regards,

    K.D.

After 4 hours he called saying the keys were not in the glove compartment and stated he didn’t lock the doors. Long story short I had to pay $250 for a key I’m positive I left.

    I will try to be brief in my report. Unfortunately my last experience with this company has been a disaster. I was told, based on very weak evidences that I damaged the host's car. Such weak and small evidence that it was necessary to highlight and zoom the damage in the pic, among all the other similar damages the car already had, to see it. Why weak? Also because the host's picture before I take the car just don't show anything, and was not into Turo's pattern. After that, Constance, the person in charge of this case sent us an estimate that was unacceptable. She says it is a partner of their, which makes it suspicious for me, who would actually PAY for the repair. Also, the amount they were charging was really abusive, and the service described seemed to be more than just fixing "my damage" (as they did not care about giving us any explanation about that estimate, that is how it looks like).

    Of course we talked to other experts we TRUST, not our PARTNERS! The estimate we got was half of the price. We requested to present our expert's estimate, and that this lady send us the PICS she used to get hers. She only said she would give us 5 days to present a new estimate but may not accept a lower one (WHAT!?!?). Did not said anything about HOW they got theirs. So I have to pay for a service and do not have a real right of word!?!? And it is not all: She did not wait as she said she would, she charged us right away. I think Turo do not see renters as clients, only hosts. What are hosts without renters, though!?!? That is why I will be more than happy to share this experience and all my evidences with whoever I can, and whoever is considering to rent a car through Turo. What a shame for the company.

    My experience was the worst ever. I usually rent cars but this time with Turo was terrible. The owner of the vehicle rented out a Corvette and the passenger side door would not open all the way which is a safety hazard not to mention the AC was not working. After we pulled off from the pick up location the AC went out and when I advise the owner of the vehicle about it he advised me that he would check it once my trip is over and I live in South Florida Miami and the temperature that day was 97°. I could have quite a heat stroke.

    Seems like Turo vehicles are not safe and checked properly by these personal owners not to mention the owner of the vehicle tried to say I caused other problems in the vehicle but from the beginning the car is a lemon. Absolutely worst experience ever and paid an extra 179 then the owner tried to say he will take the vehicle to the dealership and send the bill to me SMH! Not to mention he is very dishonest. He took my phone. The owner of the vehicle took my phone and act like he was discharging the trip and text himself that the AC was working which was a lie. He’s a fraud and dishonest.

    I heard great things about Turo from my brother. I was traveling to Maine from Boston airport so figured I’d give it a try. I booked my first car and was excited - however not too long after the driver denied me because he stated the car was listed at too low or a price and that Turo messed up at pricing it. Then I book a different car and a day before my trip I am told it will be a different car and to book that one. I get to the location, pick up the car, and start the 200 mile road trip.

    100 miles in the “oil level low” light comes on so I immediately tell the owner. He asks me to buy oil, put oil in. I do so and continue driving. I finally reached Maine, and tried not to drive the car much because he said the levels were full when he dropped the car off. The day comes I have to make my flight back to Boston so I leave adequate time to get there. The car leaked so much oil I had to stop every 30 miles to put a quart of oil in otherwise I feared I would never make it. 4.5 quarts & 4 stressful hours later I made it back. Still waiting to hear back from the owner as to a discount being applied. Overall a bad experience which is a bummer because I was excited about the app.

    I rented a vehicle using the TURO application recently, this was my first rental experience with TURO. I will say that everything was clear and well thought out on the application. The particular owner that I worked with was extremely professional. I will rent with Frank’s Nissan again in the future. My one challenge for TURO is to offer your excellent business concept in NYC. I live in Manhattan and I had to get myself to the owner in New Jersey, which added cost, inconvenience and lost time to my rental experience.

When I canceled the trip, I was still charge half the full payment amount and I only drove the car from airport to Airbnb. Host was upset I canceled and all of a sudden, a claim was filed claiming I damaged a rim on the car. Host then goes and rents vehicle to someone else and they experience the same problem.

    I rent my car through Turo. I have a coverage plan from Turo for every damage made by guest. On 5/15/2020 a guest took my car in perfect condition and after inspection and after 3 hours called me and said the car stuck on highway, smoking and he cannot start the car. I called a tow truck and took the car to auto repair. Turo received all the proofs that the damage it's the guest fault. They sent an insurance adjuster that agreed the car was in perfect condition before the guest rent it and they also made me run data frame test that proves that the damage it's the guest fault. Since Turo understand that the damage it's the guest fault and I'm covered by them insurance they ignoring me, they do not answer or respond any calls/voicemails/emails.

    Overall, I was very happy with the car itself (Fiat 500). It was comfortable, easy to drive and handled well. In addition, it was fairly spacious given it's a small, 2-seater. My primary issue, however, was with having to use the Turo app to lock/unlock the car. This feature works great, provided you're in an area with strong cell phone signal. I was vacationing in Dunsmuir and Mt Shasta, CA, both fairly rural places. The signal was at times very weak to non-existent and this became hugely problematic. The car's engine is set up to lock/unlock with the app. However, when I couldn't unlock the car with the app, it would not start even though I had the physical key. This was further disappointing and frustrating as I had to skip visiting certain destinations, as there was no signal and I did not want to get stranded.

    Turo customer service was unable to help me at all with this issue and referred me to the car's owner. Thankfully, I was able to reach the owner and trouble-shoot with him. I would not recommend this feature for renters who are planning to travel to areas with limited, unreliable cell phone signal. Otherwise, the car and app worked smoothly.

    I came across Turo because a friend had suggested I check it out. Taking the advice I had booked a car last week to use the week after during the weekend. I found everything to be self-explanatory and easy and as I got down to the booking process it was very simple. After about two days the host then canceled my trip. After talking to this host and discussing why the trip was canceled I was able to rebook with my refund. With this refund I decided to book another car with a different host.

    The booking process was swift leave until two days later this host had canceled again but this time nine hours before the trip was supposed to start. I contacted the host asked why it was being canceled and she said because she had plans. I strongly dislike how Turo enables host to cancel trips less than 24 hours ahead of time. It is very inconvenient and has officially put me into a stressful situation. After the second host has canceled, I immediately went to rebook another car. After re-booking with a 3rd host it was approved. I then messaged the host saying sorry for booking so last minute because my last host had canceled.

    Shortly after the messages sent, my trip was then canceled yet again. It is so frustrating to know that Turo allows people to go ahead and book a Trip then allow the host to cancel short noticed when the person renting may need the car. When the hosts are allowing their cars to be posted on Turo to be rented I feel that they should at least be able to plan ahead of time and plan out when their car is actually available to rent out. Now I am unable to rebook with my refund because Turo has initiated a full refund when I did not want that. I would've liked to rent out a car with the refund from the last cancellation but now Turo has decided otherwise. I am very upset with all of this that is happening when I am very in need of a car therefore I will no longer be booking with Turo. I hope that you all do not go through the same problems that I went through and I hope you guys have a reliable host.

    I highly do not recommend using Turo, it almost costed me my life and my nephews lives. Car started shaking on the highway then stopped on me. Turo representative response was simply giving me 50$ in credit on the app. The agreement was for the person renting me the car to meet me at LAX, but when I landed he told me to get a 35$ Uber to his location, his location was next to where you was staying so at that point it didn’t even make sense to get the car. He also agreed for me to leave the car by LAX and last minute he changed that as well to leaving the car at his house and taking another 35$ Uber to LAX. This app is a scheme.

    I told Turo representatives that I have a receipt that I filled up the gas tank the night before my flight, and driver tried to scam me for another 60$ saying gas tank wasn’t full... DO NOT USE THIS APP, stick to professional rental cars which I can speak to a actual person infront of you.
