Renting from kyte at LAX is not a good experience. You need to take a shuttle and an Uber to get to the car pickup. Not worth the slight cost advantage. If you tip the car delivery person (or the Uber driver) .. cost advantage is gone. The vehicle I reserved was not available and I had to wait five hours or downgrade. I would not use this app or service again.

Uncharges
Huge amount of hidden up charges that changed my $150 trip to an over $200 one.

Cancels and with no notice or reason. A waste of time and garbage.

Flawed account & ID verification process, poor app chat
Account setup and verification process is flawed and does not link actual name, email, and ID correctly. No ability to change or update these details without you having to delete your account which also permanently closes that account and email. The unique identifier seems to be your ID and not email and triggers duplicate account errors. In-app chat struggles - truncates messages, and super slow, seems like a memory issue or inefficiency. App and process needs a lot more work, testing of use cases, etc

Great service, but app’s location map lagging
Love Kyte, have used it several times. Kyte is very convenient for us city-dwelling one-car family folk who sporadically need a second vehicle for larger groups or weekend kid transportation logistics. The app is great, but the Surfer Tracking Map was completely inaccurate. I checked and refreshed the map multiple times, and it always showed the car “18 minutes away”, even when it was parked at my house. Once that gets worked out, I would give you guys 5 stars. :-)

Scam
Don't use this app unless you have $500 you can spare for an extra 2 weeks after you use this service. Never seen something so ridiculous. Getting to the rental place was also a nightmare. Will never use again.

Unprofessional and dangerous.
Car was given with a have a gas tank, dirty windshield covered with dead bugs, dirty and sticky back seats. When time came to use headlights, headlights were dim as candle! If you decide to rent from them make sure car is functioning properly.

Outlandish charge
When I extended my rental for a day they charged me way above the original price I was paying per day.
