-
General status: Dollar Rent A Car, part of the Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, continues to operate as a budget car rental brand with locations primarily in North America and some international partners. For current booking options and regional availability, check their official site or local airport counters.[6][7]
-
Controversies and consumer issues: There have been ongoing consumer complaints and several class-action filings in the past regarding add-on charges and upselling practices at times, though company positions and settlements vary by case. If you’re researching specific incidents or recent settlements, the latest entries often appear in consumer-law reporting sites or regulatory filings.[3][4][8]
-
Customer feedback and reputation: Independent review platforms show mixed to negative experiences in recent years, highlighting issues such as unexpected fees, reservation changes, and customer service. Always review current terms, inspect the rental agreement closely, and document pre-existing damages before pickup.[5][9]
-
What to look for when renting: - Confirm all optional protections (CDW/LDW, insurance) and whether they’re required for your rental; - Verify total estimated charges and taxes before signing; - Photograph the vehicle on pickup and note any pre-existing damage; - Confirm return location and hours to avoid penalties.[7][6]
If you want, I can fetch the very latest articles or regulatory notices and summarize any new developments, or pull up the most recent customer reviews for your specific location (Dublin, Leinster, IE is your stated location). Please tell me which you’d prefer.[1][5]
