Enterprise rent-a-car - dont give a stuff attitude...

Brake lights can go pop at any time. It could have gone after the inspection, during the point where they bring it around the front for you.

Or in your case - teach them to read.

If you manage it, I think you will that my issue is mainly with their attitude and the fact it turned out the washers were faulty so:-

1. It wasnt checked in the first place.
2. Enterprise couldnt be bothered to help sort the problem out.

Don't sweat the small stuff

Now I don't want to be all alarmist and health and safety, and think of the children etc. - but don't you see that Enterprise gave out an unroadworthy car? That's not small stuff.
A bulb would be more understandable, it could have gone after it had been 'checked', but washer fluid should not be empty.

Actually it's not that it was empty, it's that the washer didn't actually work.

While more alarming, in a way it's more understandable. Their staff will have a checklist to go through before they let a car out and it will be all the usual stuff... petrol in tank, tread depth, lights, washer fluid etc.

I've never seen a car checklist like that that includes actually firing the washers, even the ridiculous backside-covering daily checklist that our work give us (apparently we're supposed to check for battery leaks daily, in a car where the battery is completely covered) doesn't include firing the washers.
