There's a strange problem. The car I rented from Thrifty was actually provided by Hertz. I picked it up in Nice and returned it at Geneva Airport, but I still don't know where the return point (said to be the French zone of Geneva Airport) is. Has anyone ever returned a Hertz car at Geneva Airport? Could you please point it out? Is there a difference between returning a car in the French zone and the Swiss zone at Geneva Airport? Thank you ? Switzerland Q&A

Ask the fellow wuzhuos for some experience. I plan to drive on my own from Zurich, Lucerne, Interlaken in the first three days. Then go to Murren for two days, Grindelwald for two days. On the last day, I plan to drive along Montreux, Lavaux, Lausanne, and arrive at Geneva airport at night. Because, the car will be parked in Lauterbrunnen for two days in the middle, and the car will almost not be used during the two days in Grindelwald. Do you think I should return the car at the East Station of Interlaken before going to Murren, take the train, and then take the train to Geneva, or drive all the way ? Switzerland Q&A

Return and inspection of the car 1. Prepare the checklist provided by the rental company before 2. Rental agreement, insurance documents, deposit receipt 3.

Return the car with a full tank of gas. Otherwise, you may be charged for refueling, which can be expensive 6. Take a photo of the fuel gauge 7. Take photos of any potential scratches to avoid being overcharged 8. When the car is inspected, make sure to check what is written and any associated fees. If there are any objections, resolve them before signing. This can be a stressful time, especially if you are in a rush to catch a flight, and you may overlook certain issues. It can be difficult to resolve them once you have returned home 9. The deposit refund will depend on the rental company checking for any violations, parking tickets, or toll charges. It may take 1-2 months to receive the deposit refund, and there will be no notification. The charges will be automatically deducted Additional information: Some gas stations offer automatic and manual car wash services. Both require self-operation.

Hello fellow car owners, I wonder if any of you have encountered being charged by the car dealership? (Main reason: The other party was fully responsible for the accident, and they had full coverage insurance while we only had basic insurance. When we returned the car, the dealership said the other party would compensate us. Six months later, we received a notification saying that they were investigating whether there were any damages to the car that were not caused by a third party, and then they charged over 10,000 yuan to our credit card. How should we handle this?) ? Switzerland Q&A
