Ratings and reviews

App is great - fees leave you wishing you didn't use it. It was labor day and I needed a car, but car rental companies had no inventory, so I gave turo a try. It was easy to sort cars by type and price. I chose a renter that had a storefront business, and they were great! My mistake was checking out without looking closely at the end price, because the end price was 40% more because of the fees! If you use turo and see companies using their platform, check if they have a website. Book direct!

It sent me an ad as a notification on my phone. I go into the app's settings to disable ads/promotions, only to find that you can either disable in-app text notifications (important), or enable ads by email (not important). Fine, I'll just disable ads using Android's baked-in per-app notification settings. Nop! Only thing I can turn off are "general notifications", which would probably impact text alerts within the app. In short, Turo sends me ads via notifications that I can't turn off.

Technical issues, the app. Simply trying to make an account didn't even work. And their AI-driven help center kept refusing to let me contact a real person without an account, not understanding that that's the part that wasn't working. Even after I got ahold of a real person and got them to make an account for me, the process of actually getting the rental going was full of glitches, error screens, and being unable to access vital information for my trip. It's an extremely shoddy app.
