Road side assistance was quick with a dead battery most likely car’s stop/start feature enabled by all prior renters. Good value for the money car driving condition good except windshield’s inside wasn’t clean but after dead battery swapping another car at airport erased my bad experience. Late pickup at 10pm might have contributed to cleanliness inside of windshield? Photos of battery under the hood attached.
