Went to pick it up and was offered an altima again. I politely asked about the double upgrade coupon I used and the agent said that they did not have any available in the premium section. After punching in a lot of keys, he asked me to check out this Cadillac. I said yeah it's good and he handed the keys to me.

Great car with leather, heated seats, and XM. Has 21k miles on it. Just a few things off, the wheels had scratches on them. The passenger seat had gum stuck to it. I didnt care as I was going to drive by myself. Now I think there might be more wrong with it. When I picked it up at CMH, it said that tire pressure was about 30 in one tire. The next morning I got a warning saying that pressure was low. Had dropped to about 14. I filled it up Monday morning and drove 7 hrs to VA. Now yesterday night pressure sensor said the same tire's pressure was low. This morning, dropped it to 12 again. I filled it up with air again. I called Avis yesterday night and told them to put a note in case it leaks again. So what are my options? I don't wanna have to drive another 7 hrs thinking the tire is flat. Moreover I go through mountains which means no cell phone reception. The closest Avis is also an hour away at GSO. What are the chances that they replace this car and give me a similar one for the return trip back home???
Thank you
I would start with a call to Avis, and ask for their suggestion/solution.
