Kearny Mesa (San Diego) car rental reviews and directory
Budget was great. I requested a vehicle to be picked up @ the airport. KAYAK reserved a vehicle @ a Budget location far away. The airport Budget Manager was able to change our reservation and rent us a van with the same discounts. Budget was great; Kayak sucks!!!

I actually returned my car in another city. When we arrived I was told there would be an extra $300 charge. But the charge was nowhere on my contract or reservation. The representative in the parking lot told me to ask at the counter, which was mobbed. Fortunately, a representative at the desk agreed to help and eventually said there would be no additional charge, except for my deserved one hour late fee :)

Didn't realize location was so far from airport. Had to pay for 2 cab rides to get there and back. Cost $40. Each way
The office texted me while I was in the air flying to my destination and informed me they were closing the office and had no car to lend me. It put me in a precarious situation as I was traveling with my parents who are in their 90s.

They had no cars I had to take an electric car it felt like it was bait and switch. I’ve never used an electric vehicle and no one showed me how to do it. Frustrating and had to go the charging station 3x the first two times apparently I wasn’t doing it right. Had to ask someone else who was at the station how to do it.

The van was extremely comfortable and had a lot of modern tech. The tech was not so refined, however. The CarPlay kept rebooting mid-drive for some reason, the automatic doors were frustrating and the adaptive cruise control was horrifically incompetent. The standard cruise was great and the ride itself was superb. Very comfy and quiet ride.
The customer service at the location is excellent. They did not have the vehicle I had originally requested. They promptly provided me with an alternate and a discount.
