What a joke of a place and WHAT CROOKS! Clunker cars that are not reliable and you can`t take out of San Diego or LA area. So much for unlimited miles! They have zero knowledge of what their doing. Constantly on the phone with the owner because the people working there don`t know how to answer any questions without asking. AVOID!

if you`re on this page you just need to read the headlines of the other reviews and you will have all the information you need, However, here`s my experience with these crooks: I reserved the car for 10pm and pick it up after 2pm. They had 2 cars. I got the best one...a subraru wagon with 143,000 miles. No plates. The police officer that pull me over said it hadn`t been registered since 2009. The brakes we... view morere bad and almost kill us. It had yellow marks on the window and I believe it had recently been purchased from an auction, The extremely ignorant and rude clerk wrote on the agreement it was due at 10am. I returned it 3 days laters at 10am and was charged for 4 days after I left.. The clerk refuse to discuss the charges and completely ignored me. A call to the main office proved even more disturbing... The place I was at was on India street but apparently the company is really in Encinitas. These folks are straight up gangsters. They rip you off intentionally. Do not give them your credit card. They should be Avoided at all cost.. I`m considering filing a small claims suit just for the principle of it but if I can alert just one unsuspecting victim I will be satisfied.

My husband reserved a car at A+ because of their low rates. When he arrived to pick up the car, he was asked to provide proof of insurance or purchase insurance from A+. He declined, deciding that he`d rather rent elsewhere. The next day he was charged over $30 as a cancellation fee. When I saw the charge and called, I was told that it was company policy to charge this fee if the reservation was not cancelled 48 ... view morehours in advance. The clerk continued to defend the company`s position so continuously that I was unable to ask any further questions. I was then put on hold and disconnected about 10 minutes later. Subsequent calls were not answered.

I had a nice experience with A Plus Truck & Car Rentals and its employees. I was in need of a vehicle for one month all the big companies like: Enterprise, Hertz, & Budget are a total rip-off. They wanted $850.00 for one month for a 2 door hatchback. I did a little research and found A Plus Truck , they had cars from $350.00 a month. I decided to go and look at the vehicle because it was too good to be true and i... view moret was true. I rented a 2006, 4 door Chevy Aveo (nice & clean), I was happy ! I did not experience any bad customer service and my deposit was intact. Of course I returned the car in the same conditions it was given to me! I would recommend this company if you want to save money. Nice people & nice cheap cars! Thank you APlus Truck & Car Rentals!

I also had a nightmare experience with this place. I was already overcharged on my credit card without my consent. I am now worried about the deposit amount they reserved on the card ? I knew it seemed wrong , but they double talk and bully you into leaving multiple authorizations. The cars are not maintained correctly. I had to be given a completely inappropriate replacement due to poor mechanical issues. The repla... view morecement was seriously dangerous ! It ruined the trip I had so carefully planned. These people are scammers and this place should be shut down.

renting a vehicle at this place was my worst nightmare. No one can give you a straight answer..they need to email the owner. No one with any say is at the tiny kiosk in downtown San Diego. No where on the contract does it say if you are late bringing the car back they charge you a full day. I was 30 minutes late due to traffic. I was charged an extra $102.86. Your credit card is not safe with them, they will charge y... view moreou without consulting you.The truck I rented was dented, the radio barely worked, mirror would not stay up, gas gauge faulty and the windshield wipers were falling apart.On top of that they tried to say I damaged the vehicle when it was clearly marked by their own people on the contract. Make sure to cover all damage IN WRITING if you use these people. They seem like a bunch of con artists.

I RECENTLY RENTED A CAR FROM THIS PLACE AND I DONT HAVE A CREDIT CARD SO I HAD TO PUT CASH DEPOSIT OF 290.00 AND WAS TOLD I WOULD RECIEVE A CHECK AFTER I RETURNED THE RENTAL FOR THE CASH DEPOSIT I MADE.ITS BEEN A WEEK AND NO CHECK..........NOW WHAT DO I DO? One week later they finally sent me a check......

Here is what happens: First, A Plus offers an extremely low price (planning on getting money out of you in other ways). Watching every dime in this economy they `looked` like the best deal. THEY WILL SEND YOU A DEMAND LETTER INFORMING YOU THAT THE CAR WAS DAMAGED. The scam likely works well with most people. If you would ask if A Plus documented the damage to the car before and after you rented it. THEY D... view moreON`T. I even asked about it when I picked it up and dropped it off. They insisted there was no need. Obviously, they don`t want it documented, so they can then scare you into believing there was damage done to the car. I highly recommend never renting from them. This was obviously a calculated scam. Horrible company. Never rent from them. A Plus Truck & Car Rentals - A Rip Off. AVOID.
