Vieques Car Rental
by James
(New York City)
I rented a JEEP in Vieques in November of 2009 with my Husband. The JEEP was an older model, 99 I believe. It was good enough to get around in but during the middle of our stay the left rear tire fell off while we were, luckily just turning onto pavement and driving slowly. As well, we were lucky enough to pass a bar where the town seemed to come and help along with the Police Chief Edina. All were very helpful. The police chief saw that one of the lug nuts had been broken off and rusted meaning that tire was missing a lug nut. The owner denied responsibility, of course and slapped us with a $440 bill to our surprise when we got home. At this point we are enlisting the support of the police chief and our credit card is investigating. I, of course, am not renting from Vieques car rental again and urge others not to. It is one thing to take care of your business, it is another to prey on renters.
