There are no restrictions for driving car rentals from Detroit to Canada. However, driving to Mexico in Detroit rental cars might not be as straightforward.

Some vehicles such as passenger van rental and electric car rental are not available for cross-border travel.

Many car rentals in Detroit provide flexible payment options. You can pay for your rental car using credit cards, debit cards, cash, and pre-payment. However, only credit and debit cards can be used to pay the deposit. The rest are only admissible when clearing up your balance after the rental period. Credit cards are the most preferred method of payment for Detroit car rentals. Most companies will accept credit cards from major companies such as VISA, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover Network. The name on the card should match the renter’s name for any payments to be accepted. You can also use debit cards, but only those with the VISA, Discover, and MasterCard logos are accepted. And at airport rental locations, debit cards will only be accepted if accompanied by a ticketed return travel schedule.
