We have always used Alamo for our Orlando car rentals. Last week, we picked up a brand new (198 miles!) Chevy Lumina at the airport, and drove it for a day before arriving at WDW. Never used the lights, radio, plug ins, wipers, anything. It sat in the resort parking lot for 4 days, and when we went to check out - NOTHING. Couldn't even get in the car with the remote!
DH called Alamo and talked with a very helpful lady who informed us that Alamo policy would be a $49 charge for jumping the car - ridiculous, given that we hadn't done a thing to it. However, she told us it would be quicker, and more importantly, FREE, if Disney Security did it. And she even called Security for us while we held the line! Security was there in 5 minutes and they were SO friendly and helpful. They jumped our car and suggested we drive to the Car Care Center and have Alamo look at it, so we drove there right away and switched cars. Apparently it was a computer problem, since the car would not start again.
So, if you have car troubles, I'd highly suggest Disney Security!
