KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in El Mirage

  • Car rentals in El Mirage are a flexible and advantageous mode of transport. With a rental car, you'll not only have privacy but also the convenience of traveling around El Mirage at your own pace. Public transportation can slow your commute because of queueing time and having to transfer to reach your destination. With a rental car, you can also transport your luggage hassle-free. A popular attraction you can explore using your rental car is the Wildlife World Zoo Aquarium and Safari Park, which is about 8 miles from the city.
  • El Mirage is served by Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) and Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport (AZA). At Phoenix International Airport, the rental car facility is on site at Sky Harbor Circle South. To head to the rental car center, board the complimentary shuttles that are found at the curb at the baggage claim area of each terminal of the airport. AZA has a rental car center at 6033 S Sossaman Road that can be accessed from the main terminal. The rental car counters are located in the baggage claim area and the respective rental company staff will guide you to where you can collect your rental car. A valid driver's license and ID are some of the requirements that car rental companies will need from you.
  • Using car rentals in El Mirage will require understanding the driving culture and road conditions of the city. Some drivers in El Mirage can be hostile, especially during peak hours when the roads have high volumes of traffic. However, within the residential zones, most drivers are civil and tend to obey the speed limits. The roads are wide enough to accommodate traffic and are well-maintained. Always drive carefully as El Mirage streets can have high pedestrian activity, particularly in the residential zones.
  • During the rush hours in El Mirage, which are between 6 am and 8:30 am and from 4:30 pm to 6:30 pm, the roads tend to be crowded and traffic is slow moving. Major roads like El Mirage Road can get busy and congested leading to traffic delays especially on weekdays and during tourist seasons like summer, making driving on them difficult. Avoid driving during these hours to escape the hassle of navigating through traffic jams during your commute.

Pros:

Caravan we got was able to fit all of my family including luggage, however it over heated half way through the trip. Heater didnt work. Aux/usb didnt work. Brakes shacked and smelled.

Cons:

The van obviously was not checked before it was rented out. This EXTREMELY is not ok and blows my mind. This puts peoples lives at risk and could have caused an accident very easily. Once we got to our destination, the local enterprise was able to exchange the vehicle. Once we returned the vehicle at the end of our rental the manage was able to discount 50% off. If anyone actually reads these responsive i would love a reply. Thank You so much!

5.2 Fair

Oct 2018

KAYAK

Pros:

The best thing I can say is that I got an upgrade after waiting over an hour for my reserved car. They didn't have the car level I reserved (they didn't have ANY cars), so I got upgraded to one that had literally been turned in while I waited, which happened to be an upgrade to my reservation. Although it was more circumstantial than intentional, I'll give them credit for the upgrade. Also, a discrepancy in the charged price was easily corrected at turn it. I was charged for the "upgrade", even though it was all they had. It was corrected at turn in. The service was friendly, and they worked very hard to get things done, despite the severe disorganization of the entire operation.. I think I would have an ulcer or a breakdown in I had to work in that stressful and chaotic of an environment.

Cons:

1) First I noticed when I walked in that there were many people sitting waiting. I quickly learned that it was because the branch literally had NO cars to rent. They were frantically scrambling to find cars from other locations to bring in to satisfy their reservations. It was as if the reservations were blindly accepted with no regard to what they actually had in stock, and no prior planning had been done the previous day to ensure they had what they needed. Nobody got what they reserved....they just took what happened to be getting turned in by other renters while they were waiting. I waited for almost an hour before they had a car for me. Fortunately, most were 'upgrades' as to size/style of car. 2) When I finally got my car, it was contracted to me at the upgraded price, not my originally reserved price. While it was nice....both to get the upgrade, and just to get a car and get out of there,....nobody told the associate who checked me out. He wrote the contract up for the full cost of the upgraded rental. I didn't notice until after I left because the contract has to be emailed to you. They did correct it at turn in though. 3) When I got the car, it was not necessarily "dirty", but it wasn't clean. The glass and windows had streaks and water spots all over them. It looked like someone had taken a sopping wet rag and just wiped every surface in the car....windows....dash...center console...and left it wet. Everything had streaks, water marks, and smears all over. It WAS vacuumed though. I ultimately ended up taking it through a full serve carwash because when the sun hit the windows at the right angle I couldn't even see out the rear window. Overall, I guess I did get a car, and it was upgraded after some inconvenience. I don't think I'd go through this branch/company again though. I can't imagine that other locations wouldn't be following the same disorganized business model.

Pros:

First time renting a vechile, it went smooth, all questions were answered in a very professional manner. Friendly staff

Cons:

There honestly is nothing I didn't like. Maybe the time for dropping off and picking up while using the website. Gave you a different price just for a few hours after your pick up date.

Had a 12 PM rental time on Saturday, but they close at 12. Got there a few minutes early and they were already closed. When I attempted earlier in the week to move my appointment up an hour to 11 I was told I’d be charged, so I kept the 12pm time. How can you expect to pick up the car at 12 if you are not open past 1150? Horrible.. Did not get my car and will never use them again
