Despite photos and videos of a dirty car with multiple mechanical issues, I couldn’t get the support team to give me a refund. Spent hours on the phone. Horrible company, horrible support, avoid at all costs

I have been a host on the Turo platform for over 5 years and in spite of being a profitable host whenever I have a problem with a guest who rents my car Turo treats me like dirt and always decides in the guest's favour. The Turo team in the UK and US are very young and have no regard in building relationships with the car owners who make the platform function. Car owners be careful.

Their customer service is horrendous. I would not recommend Turo to anyone. After calling them about an account issue (had to swap my wife's driver's license for my own), they said I have to use chat. I then had to wait to receive an email with a link. I had to then chat with someone who took minutes each time to respond, in poor English, and who was incredibly unhelpful. For what would seem a simple update, they said I had to create an entirely new account with a new email address. They then failed to refund me my money. It ended up being cheaper to rent a better car with Enterprise. I was really looking forward to Turo as I'd heard some great things and love the concept. So sad to have this kind of customer support experience.

These are instances that I wish a zero star existed. I got the car, I had to drive 30 miles out of town to pick it up. Remember the host charges you by miles (150 miles per day) going there and back is 60 miles. I called the guy to inform him about his bald tires. He tells me to not further damage the car, leave it, lock it and go. I had the car for four hours but they charged me for a full day and full tank of gas. I only drove it 40 miles. The guy had glued his bumper and front end together. After going over a bump, it must have come loose. Now they want to charge me for $1800 forth of damages. This is fraud and these jokers found a way to scam people. Hope you have better luck but be super careful.

I would never rent from Turo again. We set up a return time with the owner of the car. He was late and they towed the car! We were on the hook for over $500 towing and parking fees! Never again!

Would never use this platform again they rob the host. They robbed the guest. They’re very racist anti-Semitic and discriminative I had cars on the platform about 20 of them because of lack of performance they banned me sold my cars to My cousin and they said that they are unable to unless my vehicles because they are racist. They seen my picture and didn’t want those type of people on their platform, so be aware if you show your face and they don’t like the way you look they will discriminate trying to get a lawsuit

Turo is a complete rip off not to mention when you have to cancel a reservation due to a legitimate reason they not only want to charge you they unlist your vehicle. That’s also after they adjust your daily rate to almost half of what you had it listed for. BEWARE of listing your vehicle.

First time renting with Turo, never again. I have issues with the tire pressure, now I am stuck with a car I don't dare driving on the freeway. Really don't want to start servicing this car myself. The host is not responding to my messages. Also tank was only 1/3 filled with gas. Waist of money and time. Picture was taken 1 hour after pick up from Nice Aeroport.

We reserved a car one month ago and requested that it be delivered to our home since we don’t have a car. Turo's advertising states that cars are delivered to the renter’s home. However, less than 24 hours before the rental, we received a message asking us to pick up the car 29 kilometers from our home. Turo is definitely a scam with false advertising. Now we have to pay 68 dollar for the cancellation or pay 70 dollars for an Uber. We cancelled, and we will not use Turo again.

Turo ripped me off. I made an agreement with the owner to return my rental a couple of hours after it was due. In exchange, I agreed to drop it off at his workplace, even though I paid extra for airport drop off. Tho owner agreed but Turo still charged me an additional full days rental. No customer service. Idiots!

Turo is a complete scam! We rented a car in Cali, over 48 hours after we returned the car & had returned home. The host decided to file a fake claim against us. Our credit card was charged by Turo with NO RECOURSE to in fact report the host as a complete con artist. At NO POINT WAS THE CAR WE RETURNED DAMAGED. WE HAD PICTURES AS WELL! WITH NOOOO DAMAGE. We're actually asking our attorney general to look into it because this is in no way acceptable.

Avoid this car share rental at all cost!!! The first impression and rental rate is compatible and you thought why not give it a try! It's a big mistake! The host will send you reimbursement for where the car was pick up and returned a month later!? I have never heard any renters have to responsible for where the car were parked? And the fee is more than the rental cost!? Really!?

Absolutely disgusting service and behavior. Could not extend my trip on the App, wanted to pay in advance but couldn’t - so they send a tilt tray truck to pick the car up at 10.45pm on a Sunday night, waking up my 92 year old Mother. They then charged me $120 for it! Absolutely disgusting behavior and work ethic - NEVER NEVER use Turo for car hire - EVER!

I wish I could give less than 1 star. My poor experience with Turo was completely avoidable and, in today's app driven era, almost unbelievable. For those who have not rented with Turo in the past; it is a vehicle rental app with listings driven mainly by single private parties who lend their vehicles out, through the app, to registered users. I was the renter in this instance. I needed a passenger van, larger than a minivan, so that I could travel on vacation with myself, 3 other adults, and 2 children in car seats. We rented the car 6 MONTHS ahead of the vacation and had everything to be packed ready according to the size vehicle I rented. The turo app charges the balance owed on the rental a week ahead of time (note that this went through without issue). The Turo app will also, on the day of rental, give you location updates of where the car is (where the person who is dropping the car at the meet point is) and will display statements such as (1 more hour until your rental begins etc). I was at the drop off point waiting for the vehicle (I waited for half an hour past the time at which the van was supposed to arrive). The app allows you to forward calls and text to the person you are renting from, I received zero response. I finally called Turo support (note we are about 10 hours from vacation starting). When speaking with the agent I was told that the Van had been unlisted from the site (I wish I had taken a screenshot with timestamp here as when I opened the app while speaking with the agent, I was still able to search this listing). I asked when the listing was removed from the site and was told I could not be given that information. However, the main issue I have here, is that, while I cannot be sure when the vehicle was unlisted from the site, there should have been an immediate notification through the app that my trip had been cancelled. I was left in a lurch, if I wanted to find a 12 seat passenger van (which I would have had to drive almost 2 hours to a bigger city) and it would cost me more than $1000.00 more. I should have been notified the instant the van was unlisted. Was Turo hoping I would forget to call and request a refund? Had I not done anything (called Turo) I would have been charged for a vehicle I never received!

I booked a hire car through Turo for the 2nd week in July this year to be picked up at Carcassonne airport. During my flight from Manchester to Carcassonne Turo cancelled my rental. On arrival in France I saw the email and tried to contact Turo for alternatives. There were none. We were in France with no hire car and no alternative car was available. Turo have no back up plan for this. If the car is not available, for any reason, you are on your own. I had to rent the last car at Europcar and pay an astronomical amount to do so. Trying to rent a car from Turo cost me £800 more than the original Turo booking. Do not use, they have no back up plans and you will be stranded in a foreign country with no help from them.

Terrible customer support. Scamming hosts with incidental charges. They don’t have insurance that covers your vehicles. If a customer declines coverage then they are basically driving without insurance and the renter is responsible for the whole vehicle value. Be careful so you don’t get scammed. Not worth your time and investment.

I was a guest on Turo who booked, used their services one time. Trying to reserve for a second time, my five star account was restricted With no explanation as to why. This is an awful organization. BEWARE!!!!!

The customer service is just terrible the only thing that care about is taking people money and not even complying. They charged me 140 dollars for failing to provide. Proper drivers license and in the end I didn’t even get to use the car. They have no idea how bad their service is. They always find a way to take other people’s money in completely inexplicable ways.
