Never experienced anything like this, but please update when you get a resolution (or don’t). I have increasingly had problems with Free2Move and feel like their time in business is limited, and I suspect they will offer increasingly less support for issues like this as they go down.

Free2Move has become so dirty. I don’t ever recall their cars being as sticky, dirty, overall gross as it has been this past year. Also a lot more cars just smell like smoke. I’ve also noticed fewer cars on the map. We used to be within a five min walk of a car whenever we needed it and within the past few months, there are hardly any cars within a 15m walk of us.

I remember when car2go came to dc and it was a great service, and as small as the cars were they were so easy to find parking spots.

Seemingly overnight all the cars started having issues. I’d get in one only for the passenger seat to be covered in chicken wing bones, or any number of other gross things.

It’s a shame but people are assholes.

They’ve been disgusting that if I remember it , I had over with clorox wipes and microban. They’re generally out of washer fluid and have deflated tires all things I’ve repeatedly reported and addressed for the cars I’m in. I have a zipcar account too but generally F2M is closer and about 50 cheaper for a day rental but this has definitely sealed the deal for me, I’m done: I have to wait 5-7 for a personalized response, but closing my account after.

I agree with all your points, and adding to it a majority of the cars we get into, the screen is broken so there is no adjusting the media or anything. We have a Zipcar account too and are much happier with it BUT like you said, it’s miles cheaper for the same amount of time in a F2M. We are pretty done with F2M as well but just wished there were more options. We were big big fans of Car2Go and still sad that they left. It was generally a much better service and it was so easy to find a tiny parking spot to get into.
