Original Comment Dear Avis,<br /> I was informed by my brother,James E.Sheahan that Avis is charging his credit card an additional $3,300.00 USC on top of the original $800.00 charge for the Avis vehicle we rented in Dublin,Ireland.<br /> We are aware that the time we rented your vehicle (August 26 to September 7th 2012) was the largest influx of tourist that Ireland ever experienced. So when we arrived in Dublin, the car we agreed upon was rented and replaced with another vehicle.We observed that the Avis car inventory was almost completely depleted, so your replacement vehicle was from the bottom of the barrel.<br /> We drove the original vehicle to Limerick City.We subsequently smelled the odor of something burning, and decided to call Avis to replace the vehicle,which was still operable, with an automatic transmission.The second vehicle was also a manual transmission and delivered by a POLISH Speaking tow truck driver. When we attempted to ask him several question he simply stated in broken English,&quot;No speak English&quot;.He then got back into his tow truck and quickly drove away. <br /> The next day, I drove the second vehicle back toward Dublin and noticed that the clutch was very mushy. We exited the Highway at Porteloise and shortly after the clutch gave out.<br /> I am an active member of Local #150 of the IBOE for over 25 years. I have Operated Heavy Equipment for more then 25 years. I and my brother also learned to drive on a manual transmission vehicle.The simple fact is that the two(2)vehicles we rent were mechanically damaged in the first place.I am shocked that a reputable Company like Avis would do this to loyal Avis customers.
