I thought a compact SUV would be bigger than a Mazda CX-3 but that’s my mistake I guess. Otherwise great. Except I haven’t gotten a receipt emailed to me yet but see that my card was charged a bit more than expected/quoted. So that’s not ideal. Thanks

The only problem I had was with the wipers which weren't coming in contact with the windshield so I had to come back the next day and have them replaced but then I noticed the tires were a bit bald and I was sliding around in the snow so they ended up giving me a different vehicle which was much better.

Windshield was covered in oily smudges that made night driving difficult to see through the windshield.

Service at the desk was efficient and friendly. The condition of the vehicle was deplorable. It had a large crack in the windshield, shook severely on the highway at 100 kms/hr or more, would not shift into all-wheel drive (stuck in 2H), and was overdue for an oil change. I did not feel safe driving this vehicle and it should not have been rented to a customer in the condition it was in. Even if that meant we were to get an upgraded vehicle at no additional costs.

Nothing could be better. My car was waiting for me. My reservation was set and it was not busy due to COVID. I was out doing the check in 5 minutes and on my way 5 minutes later

WATCH OUT - when you travel with National @ Thunder Bay with Kayak, you get your car 'slightly' out of the airport, which is no issue, BUT they gave us a car with NO CRUISE CONTROL! when was the last time that happened to you? It was 30 years ago for us... Since you must use highways (Thunder Bay) you really need cruise... When I asked at the counter, they stated: "We don't know about any of our cars"!??

Person at counter was knowledgeable.

Mobile website deceptive. Confirmation email said"$total rental: $286" was told at pickup that let per km fee would bring cost to over $1800.00. Travel plans messed up. Never again
