Here is one more anecdata point: we bought a used Hertz rental eightish years ago and it's been great. Nissan Versa Note 2014. There was a scratch on the dash and faint cigarette smoke smell that made it a particularly good deal.

This definitely feels like a case of buyer beware.

From the article: "quarter-sized hole."

If you're buying a former rental car and aren't giving it an intense enough inspection to spot a quarter-sized hole, you're rolling dice.

If you take the time to methodically go over one... and reject a few... I'm sure you can find a pretty great deal.
