Found the vehicle to be very dirty the windows inside we found it very hard to drive as the windscreen was greasy

Initially Hertz refused to mail an AirPod that we left behind in the car. Against policy. When we sent a return envelop with our home adress on it, they did mail the AirPod (using our envelop). We received it through the regular post in about a week. Thanks Hertz, for helping us to solve this problem!!
