I only want to rebooked at the lowest rate that (a) is for a car class that I want (in many cases, there's an SUV that's lower, but I don't want that), and (b) that works with the bonus miles/points coupon I'm using (in the current case, 7500 bonus AA miles for a 7-day rental), and (c) is an Avis Preferred reservation made with my Avis Wizard number.

On these three specific issues, assuming you submit your own AVIS reservation for tracking: (a) autoslash will not change your car class; (b) I just don't know as I seldom use coupon codes; (c) your Avis Wizard number remains on any rebooked reservation. In my experience, automatic rebooking occurs only maintaining the same company and car class as on the original reservation submitted for tracking. In case they find a lower rate for the same car class with another company, they send an e-mail, but you have to rebook yourself. At least, that's the way it has worked for me in the past.
