Regarding Account

Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

I set up an account with Toro. I've never used the service and never been able to, the account was interrupted before I could ever use it. I have no idea why because I've never even used the service for the service to be interrupted.

I strongly recommend NOT using Turo based on my experience with reservation #6055****.

I rented a 2024 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid in Los Angeles for 31 days (Aug. 21Sep.

21, 2026). After returning the car, the host accused me of smoking marijuana and Turo charged me with a smoking violation. I did not smoke marijuana in the vehicle.

The host provided photographs of small debris inside the car. Only one photo appears to show a very small amount of material that could potentially be marijuana; the other photos show ordinary leaves and plant debris.

The host himself described the issue in his messages as branches, leaves, dirt and debris collected during a month of driving through California, including beaches and outdoor areas.

I provided my explanation and evidence and repeatedly asked Turo to properly review the case. Instead, support repeatedly told me that the charge was valid and that the decision was final, without addressing the specific evidence or contradictions in the host's own statements.

I also discovered a serious inconsistency in Turo's own documents. My official Car Sharing Agreement says PROTECTION PLAN: PREMIUM, while the payment receipt for the same reservation says STANDARD PROTECTION. I remember selecting Premium when booking.

Turo has not adequately explained which protection plan and contractual terms actually applied.

The car also had a punctured tire when we picked it up, no spare tire, and a repair kit without the necessary sealant. We dealt with this ourselves and did not make an issue of it during the trip.

Even more concerning, after this dispute Turo blocked our ability to leave a review of the host.

Based on this experience, I do not recommend using Turo.

My experience has raised serious concerns about how Turo handles disputed charges, evidence, protection plans and customer reviews. I would personally choose another rental service rather than risk being charged based on a disputed claim and then being unable to meaningfully challenge it or review the host.

Why is my acct restricted I’ve never used your service

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Contacted the company first

The reviewer tried to contact the company before posting this review.

The company is horrible when it comes to speaking with a live person I shouldnt have to speak to AI and be told that my account is restricted and Ive never even used your services and now I have to send an email and every number I contact says the same thing thats ridiculous

Pros:
  • Only pro is no credit card needed

Preferred solution: I need my stuff to not be restricted so that I can try to find me a rental car. I’ve never even used your services before I’ve looked on your website so I don’t understand what the problem is.

User's recommendation: Let customers decide if they want to speak to AI or not if we want to speak to a live person then put a live person on the service on the

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

They say there is nothing they can do. A car was rented in my name and was stolen and then impounded.

My wife rented the car in my name. I cannot get any info on it but they still say I owe for it and its on my credit report.

Turo cancelled my rsvp the day of...

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The day that I was to pick up the car, Turo cancelled due to a damaged license. Nowhere in their policy on licenses does it say anything about being damaged.

They kept $120. I cannot talk to a person on the phone in the verification dept. I have tried.

They will not put me through. They essentially stole our money and believe they are above ethical business practices.

Loss:
$117
Cons:
  • With the host or turo
  • Every experience has been challenging

Preferred solution: Full refund
