    Was a great first time experience with Turo. Easy pick up and easy drop off. Found it to be much easier than normal rental car services and also cheaper. Especially depending on where you're at. Will definitely look to go the Turo route again when I need a rental car.

    Rented twice in Turo, both times it has been a pleasure. Consider doing this myself, but unsure about insurance. The Tesla was definitely worth the money, and was like a trip into the future. I’d like to see a future overhaul in the user interface, as well as a better way of understanding the different types of insurance and cost.

    Our experience with Turo (first time) was terrific. Tres’ VW Passat was clean inside & out, was fuel efficient, and easy to drive. We were especially pleased - that given the fact our return flight was cancelled, Turo/Tres successfully extended our rental for an additional day. We look forward to future Turo opportunities after this experience. - Sandy & Dan.

    A lot simpler than renting from a regular car rents, place, in my experience. I like working with a person rather than a company. You know exactly which car you’re getting when you arrive. The car owner is so much more knowledgeable than the person you talk to when renting a car traditionally.

    I am a long-time user of Turo; I have been using it since it was RelayRides back in 2010/2011 and have hosted my own car. However, hosts scamming to increase income are ruining the experience. Just recently I did a rental with Jonathan ** in Orlando, FL. After returning the car he accused me of smoking in the car (I am a non smoker) and provided "evidence" of photos of what appeared to my eye to be sand granules on the seat, not ash... this being a convertible... in Florida.

    Despite attempting to dispute this charge, Turo are unwilling to even review the evidence fairly (the only area where it slightly looked like cigarette ash was clearly out of focus and to me looked more like crushed salt or sand) This is not the first time I've experienced "additional charges" on rentals but this is the first time I have had such a significant charge levied. It's worth noting that at no time did Turo even acknowledge that as a previous renter no mention was ever made of me smoking in cars despite having them longer and driving more miles. This increase in scamming activity has ruined Turo for me. It's a shame some. ENTERPRISEing individual can't create some NATIONAL chain of sites to allow people to GET AROUND. The accusation HERTZ.

    Renting through TURO is so much more convenient than any other car rental platform. And choices are abundant. I will be using it again!?? Deposit was reasonable and refunded on time. Only issue I experienced was the "not responsible for owners transportation to/from airport". Apparently the tell the renters that but not the owners. Mine was good about it though.

    Rented a vehicle (Mitsubishi SUV) with Turo for a week while in Vail, Colorado with my family. I selected Turo’s basic coverage which had a deductible of $3,000. We unfortunately had damage to the windshield which we promptly reported to the owner and via Turo app. Turo initially sent me a quote document for $400+ for the replacement. A month later, Turo said the actual amount paid for the windshield replacement was $1,700+. I thought it seemed like a high amount so I called Safelite (their vendor) directly to confirm. They stated the quote they had provided showed in their system but was deleted since the work was not completed, they did show another invoice of about $1,600 where the windshield had been replaced.

    I contacted Turo with the correct invoice of $1,600 as I had every intention of paying for this claim and it was a NIGHTMARE trying to get them to adjust the amount to this CORRECT amount. After more than 20 calls and e-mails all together and several weeks of waiting they adjusted the amount. Had it not been for ME trying to make it right, they would have tried to charge me more than what was actually paid for the damage. PLEASE BEWARE of this dishonest company and should you ever be invoiced or quoted something for repairs you have to pay for them, verify with the vendor. As from all the complaints I now see on their Better Business Bureau page, it is not uncommon for this to happen among other deceitful tactics.

    This was my first, and most likely last, Turo (San Diego) experience. Mina was not responsive to the issues I was having. The car was supposed to be delivered to the airport but instead I had to walk almost a mile to the parking lot where it was delivered. There was what looked like vomit in the car and had to wait 30 min for someone to come clean it. It looks like Mina and Linus have a large Turo “fleet” and it didn’t feel like that cared. I was told that the vomit was glue (why would there be glue spilled in the back of a car) and that the service engine light was for the oil change (which indicates they are not doing the maintenance required on the car) and the brakes needed work.

    Avoid this app/service and use more reliable car rental firms. If I could give a zero star rating, I would. I'm visiting San Francisco for a very important sales meeting, approximately 45 minutes from the city. Yesterday, I booked a trip via Turo and arranged to collect the car at 8am, giving me 1 hour and 30 minutes to arrive at my meeting. The trip was confirmed the previous day by Turo.

    Around 30 minute before my scheduled collection time (7.30am), I messaged the car owner to make arrangements for hand-over. He messaged back immediately saying that he had no knowledge of the booking and, in fact, he had taken his car 'out of service' on Turo because if was being repaired. I tried to book another car on Turo but it would allow me as it seemingly requires bookings to be made 3 hours beforehand (which is understandable). Unfortunately, by the time I tracked down a rental car, travelled to collect it, etc. I missed my meeting slot and the main purpose of my trip was in vain.

    To add insult to injury, Turo deducted the full charge for the trip that didn't occur. Moreover, it's many hours now since I emailed Turo outlining what occurred and I have not received even an automated acknowledgement. Again, it there's somewhere that you have to be, or more generally, you wish to avoid serious inconvenience, avoid Turo.

Next I found a Pontiac Vibe and had to take Uber 22 miles to get this car using Turo. My advice is a cash penalty should apply to host who pulls a stunt like this, confirming a reservation and then, two hours before renter can get car, host cancels reservation. Vibe rental was satisfactory with the exception of having to travel almost 24 miles to get the vehicle as a substitute.

    I was recommended this app by a friend who heard about it from a family member who rents out their car. It’s a typical bait and switch tactic, shows a catchy price then raises as soon as you check out with convenience fees, delivery fee, etc... The way I understand it you are delivered the car to the airport upon arrival but not the case. I had to call for a shuttle because of the hour of arrival, wait in the cold till pick up then over to the holding lot where you walk through isles looking for the vehicle. Make sure you read the fine print because you only get 100 miles per day cap. Then after the fact they want to charge some kind of airport fee I was confused about. My advice, stick with a reputable place like Hertz or Enterprise. The vehicle I had was falling apart and sounded like it was gonna explode.

    Used Turo for the first time last week in Austin Texas when rental cars at the airport were outrageously priced. It was a great experience. It was super convenient to have our car waiting outside the door at baggage claim instead of the hassle of dealing with a rental agency. Also we were able to just drop it off at check-in and didn't even have to fill up the tank the owner did it for us and we just paid the cost to fill it up, no crazy $10/gallon like they do at a rental car agency if you don't have time to fill it up before returning. Bottom line, great app, great car, great service, definitely using again and recommending to friends.

    Turo is a whole new way of renting out cars. It's a lifestyle in my book! I'm a huge car enthusiast and I care very much on what I drive everywhere I go! So Turo gave me that opportunity to do just that! Renting out any car anytime anywhere is just amazing! Plus it gives me a chance to test out on how other cars operate day by day and actually putting it into your own garage! Nothing beats that test drive of taking the car home! Turo is the best thing that’s happened yet for car rentals! Plus these are actually someone’s car owned and cared very well! Not some rental company that just goes day by day.

    My initial rental was cancelled due to the vehicle being damaged in an accident. Unfortunately the cancellation occurred the day before I was scheduled to pick up the vehicle. Turo not only notified me right away, but they provided alternative vehicles that matched my parameters in the notification. They even took it a step further and offered to cover the cost difference, which saved me $210 and didn’t disrupt my trip. With this level of customer service, I will definitely book again.

    I was referred by a friend for this. I created an account back in 2016 but never used it. I forgot my password and requested a password reset. Well it kept giving me an error so I just created a new account with my business email. When prompted to confirm my new email I got the same error message. I tried to chat but it took over 30 min for an agent to answer. I had to google a number for them as it is not on their website.

    I finally speak to a gentleman who verifies my info but they had an old number for me and I gave them that and told him my number has since changed since 2016! He told me that all I needed to do was to chat because that was the verification dept. I again go to chat and 15 min later a rep comes and her name is PAULA! I told Paula the situation and she said, "We sent an email to you to send pictures." I ask her, "Pictures of what?? Outside of my driver's license and me verifying all the questions you just asked me on here, what would I need?"

    I just asked her to let me chat with a supervisor and what was her agent ID. To me it was a bit fishy. She disconnected the chat. Well I was kind of glad because maybe I could chat with someone who made more sense. Well PAULA answers again. I asked her why she disconnected the chat and she is slow to respond. She said, "I sent an email to you requesting pictures." I said "WTH". So I call and guess what...I got the same guy I spoke to earlier. I asked for a supervisor and he stated that there is no supervisor! He said they need a picture of me "holding my license" and a "picture of my payment method". I'm not send a picture of my card in to to NOBODY!! Here in USA we have secured method of sending payment info.

I did as asked and for whatever reason the host accepted it instead of just answering the query and although the host was most helpful the booking didn't go ahead and had to be cancelled, soon as the cancellation took place (three hours after the inquiry) Turo took $280 off my card, it's almost impossible to contact them and now I'm told they will consider my request.

    There is NO CUSTOMER SUPPORT. Clear and Simple. Found out that we were being taken to collections, for a ticket that we knew nothing about?! Never received any kind of phone call from billing, never received proof of any ticket, just was told that we were being sent to collections for lack of payment. Tried to contact billing using their archaic "live chat" option. Went back and forth for 40 minutes with the "live chat" operator, who couldn't find the account. Then once he found the account, he told me what I already knew, "you owe for an unpaid ticket"...

    Brilliant! I asked if we could be sent proof of this ticket, the "live chat" timed out... Haven't received any follow up email as to next actions. Not sure if I'm being sent into collections, not sure what this "ticket" was even for... The email address we signed up our account with, is hardly ever used, except for junk mail. I can't believe they would allow contact regarding a payment to lapse and lead into collections.

I guess that's fine, though such players might just push out actual private-car owners. There was some clunkiness in communication and timeliness of the arrival of our car. I really like that one chooses the specific car they'll rent, not just a "Mid-Size Car" like standard rentals.

    With Turo, there are fewer hoops to jump through to rent a car. Booking a Turo trip takes less time than on typical rental sites. Downside to Turo is you never truly know the condition of the car you are renting until pickup. The car might smell like cigarette smoke or have some interior stains that you wouldn't notice from pics. Also, the tires or brakes on the car may not be up to one's standards. With major rental car companies, quality standards are higher and you know you're getting a newer vehicle in great condition.

    Requested reimbursement for cleaning and smoking fees for renters that TRASHED my vehicle and left garbage in every corner of my vehicle, smoked ** in my vehicle, left ** vape cartridges. Did not attempt to clean the outside which was covered in mud. When I contacted TURO regarding the damages they were not helpful and did not reimburse me for the cleaning or smoking fees which they advertise they will. They do not care about the HOST and are blatantly lying about their so called reimbursement and their services. Do not use TURO as a host unless it is a vehicle you do not care about at all.

    We had a wonderful time driving the car of our dreams! This was for my father’s birthday. He’s a massive Porsche fan but has never had the opportunity to drive one. He was speechless and still can’t stop talking about it!!

    I rented 2 cars in LA and the exchange was much easier and faster than the Turo I got in Missouri. The downside of it being faster is that the owner doesn't protect the driver like they should. It is not convenient to take pictures of outside and inside of car as well as the gas and miles, but it does protect me from any unwanted charges. I am very pleased with the support I have received from day 1 for signing in with Turo. Good job!

    I understand the need for a refundable deposit for some rentals but there’s no way you should have to wait 4 days after you’ve returned the vehicle to have your money returned... Once my trip is confirmed to be over my money should be released back into my card...

    This was the most seamless rental car experience I’ve ever had. I can’t thank the creator of Turo enough. I don’t know if I’d ever use a standard rental car company again. There was no credit card holds and extra processing fees. I wasn’t hassled about who’s driving and insurance. I entered my choices and that was final. It’s good to know what you want and get it without all the hassle.

    I paid an extra hundred dollars for deposit. You all sent me an email saying it would be in my account. I have yet to receive it. I’m just really concerned of what happened. As far as renting from the gentleman everything went fine with the rental. I have no complaints there but I am just curious of where my deposit is.

    The main consideration for you is whether or not you want the kind of customer service that comes with a company that actually has core competencies to rent and maintain cars to you. If you use Turo make sure you take photos of the car and walk around it with the owner before you drive away. Make sure you do the full check out when you drop off the car by uploading photos. I didn’t and I’m convinced that the owner of the car got money from me to fix things that were already small and damaged. The car owner kept insisting we settle it ourselves because Turo charges an extra percent to help settle. I purchased additional insurance through Turo since it was my first time using the service and it will be useless I guess unless the car is totaled and personal insurance is exhausted.

    I’m thinking the main thing is that individuals really aren’t I. The business of car rental and if they were they would have to realize that with the opportunity to rent their car they assume some cost of doing business. I feel Turo is making money off the backs of lots of people and many people who are Renting cars should not be doing so. I also had major issues with the app and kept thinking it was me or my phone but I’m certain now it was not. It made things difficult. I initially was so excited about the Turo idea but my experience, and after a $1,100 bill due to damage on the underside of the right bumper, leaves me feeling like I’ve got to go back to the experts who are in the business of renting and maintaining a vehicle fleet. As an early adopter of new ideas and models I’d love to try this again but the sting was too great.

    The way to rent the car is great. But I do feel that you allow the owners to overcharged. I have rented twice and took the car to a detail car wash. And still got car wash charges. There shouldn't be any car wash rental charge when both rentals were giving to me unwashed.

    I was referred to Turo from a close friend, I had never heard of it before. The selection of cars is broad and diverse, the car owner was a pleasure to deal with, and the Turo app is very easy to navigate and use. I saved over $400 by using Turo instead of renting a car for 6 days through a car rental agency. I will always use Turo whenever I go on trips or if the need ever arises locally.

    Turo as an app and the ease of which you don't have to deal with BS on the front side is pretty ok. Turo as a company and service that takes care of its customers and is upfront about their policies, worst ever. Purchasing insurance, no matter how much, from the Turo app is completely useless if you have your own personal car insurance covering any other vehicles. The wording in the small print says "any protection package you select when booking your vehicle, if one is offered via Turo, will not be available to you until your personal insurance has been exhausted. "- under Specific terms for guests.

    So, you can pay an additional $150 for an insurance plan with Turo and it be completely useless in the event that you need it if you carry your own insurance for your own car back home or wherever you have another vehicle. Then, once your own insurance pays the bill in case of an accident, minus your deductible, Turo charges an additional $150 in fees which I believe should have been requested from my insurance. Finally, when I was trying to sort out all of the additional fees their customer service team sends either automated or scripted responses that do not answer questions. Then when you schedule a phone call they miss the call time and continue to email. Overall, I rate them 1 star and will be resuming my relationship with Hertz. Have a nice day.

    I really enjoyed being able to select the exact vehicle I would be driving during my stay in California. I didn't need a vehicle for the first three days of my trip. The owner of the Tesla I borrowed delivered the vehicle to me at my hotel. WAY better than catching a shuttle, waiting in line, being upsold garbage add-ons at rental counter etc. ...AND, after several days of cruising around L.A. and San Diego, I get curbside dropoff at the airport. Turo is my new first choice for auto rentals!

    I think the overall experience was great, however the restrictions made me very uncomfortable and prevented me from really enjoying my experience. The restrictions make the consumers so uneasy to even drive the vehicles without the worry of something going wrong in the end or being unjustly charged.

    I love this concept of renting actual cars I want to drive, especially unique ones and rare. I always do that and every time I do, the first car I rent out has some major flaw and I need to bring it back to swap out. I don't consider this a bad thing because I get to drive two cars then and the owners will work with me to upgrade me and/or discount me as well and I still get to have fun. Cars aren't perfect and require maintaining so I'm flexible. As long as I get to point A and B, I'm happy.
