I rate it good because for reasons beyond my control I had to cancel the reservation of the vehicle, it cost me a lot because in Pepecar there are different sections and the ones I contacted did not have it as reserved, but they gave me enough information and kindly to locate it in other sections, and so it was, I told my case and they proceeded to cancel the reservation and sent me an email with the cancellation which I appreciate.
