Dear U-Haul Customer Service, I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my dissatisfaction and dispute an unexpected charge incurred during my recent rental experience with U-Haul. On MARCH 24, 2024, I rented a 10 foot truck (TM 3425k) from a Staten Island, NY facility for 1 day, with the understanding that it was a rental for the day, not on a per mile basis. Throughout the reservation process on your website, at no point was it explicitly stated that there would be additional charges for mileage. To my surprise, upon returning the vehicle, I was charged an extra $49.05 for mileage. This charge was entirely unforeseen and not communicated to me beforehand. As a conscientious customer, I meticulously reviewed the rental terms and conditions provided by U-Haul, and nowhere did it mention any additional fees related to mileage. I am deeply disappointed by this lack of transparency and feel misled by the information provided on your website. As a result, I am formally requesting a refund of the $49.05 that was unfairly charged to me for mileage. I want to emphasize that my intention is not to escalate this matter further by involving my bank or any external parties. Rather, I am reaching out to you directly in the hopes of resolving this issue amicably and swiftly. I trust that U-Haul takes customer satisfaction seriously and values transparency in its business practices. Therefore, I kindly request that you promptly process the refund for the disputed amount and provide confirmation of the same. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a favorable resolution. Please do not hesitate to contact me if any further information is required. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. Sincerely, Yuriy Steblak

I have used Etna Motors for UHaul rentals for about ten years and have always been happy with their service. Started using them for car repairs, too, and am equally happy.

If Uhaul could notify the drop off location. Better arrangements can be made ahead of time. Especially if it’s a small spot that can’t accommodate too many vehicles being returned. When you’re paying for mileage this is important to your customers.

I had no problem with Etna Motors. However, I had problems with the vehicle. The sliding door had closing issues. The two doors at the back locked imperfectly and would not open resulting in me using the side door. This hampered my ability to load

Honestly, the whole experience was great. The guy at Etna Motors was friendly, knew what he was doing and got me in the van and on the road in under 15 minutes. The van itself ran with no problems, was clean and well maintained, and the drop off went as quickly as the pick up. I would have no problem recommending this U-Haul location to other people.

No improvements needed it’s already perfect, John was so nice and extremely helpful, he provided all of the information I needed and answered all of my questions. The van was super clean and had no issues at all. I couldn’t be more satisfied with my experience and I will definitely recommend this location to a friend, I would give it six stars if I can.

Surprisingly easy, flawless experience. Even kinda fun to drive, however what's even more fun is setting up your living room in the back of the truck and conducting business as usual with the top up.

I feel the price on the van to rent for $20 is very misleading. Rent for $20 soon become a $170 rental with pay for miles and then gas, then pay for all the fees. Very misleading.

I waited in the cold for quite some time because your representative was trying to reach My contact. Let us know that you plan to call the contact so we can notify the contact about the expected call. Most people won't answer the phone for unknown numbers Everything else was surprisingly convenient! Thank you!

Etna Motors' service was excellent. I have comments on two matters: 1. Exorbitant daily CDW!!! Way too high. 2. Not everyone has a smartphone, and even those that do may not use it for every aspect of life. Lighten up on the insistence of doing everything on a cell phone.
