Offered: You can't get a pre-assigned car here for some reason. The kiosk dude offered a Chrysler 300 w/72,000km
Received: oh boy... third one's the charm I guess.

The first 300 had a broken touch screen which meant no way to turn the seat and steering heaters on or off amongst other things and by the time I got the seat, wheel, and mirrors adjusted my butt was on fire and the wheel was HOT, and that's when I discovered the touch screen was borked. Get my stuff out and walk back to the kiosk. They give me another 300. It won't start. Battery was fine, it just didn't register that the fob was in the car. Back to the kiosk... I told them I did not want anything made by Stellantis. OK, a KIA Salted? What the hell is that? No. A Ford Explorer? OK fine I just want to get out of here.

Keep in mind that the 300 went out of production like two years ago. Everything at this location is tired. The guys in the kiosk said they haven't gotten any new cars other than electrics for a long time.
