What they did
The reporter asked Comet to search for long-term parking close to SFO with good reviews and a daily rate below $15. It came back with several options, and when asked to book one, it went to the lot’s site, started the reservation form, and reached the point where the reporter had to verify the checkout step.
How it went
Comet put in the wrong dates twice. It also said the chosen dates were already unavailable, yet still steered toward checkout. Even after the reporter corrected the dates and told it to pick another lot, it repeated the same mistake.
Tips
Inspect every field before you let an agent submit a booking or payment. For tasks that involve email or calendar access, Comet also requires broad Google Account permissions.

Look for long-term parking near [airport] that has review scores above [rating] and costs less than [$amount] per day. Show me a few good options, explain why each one might fit, and then open the booking page for the option I choose. Enter the reservation details I provide, but stop before any payment or final submission and ask me to confirm everything first. Before you ask for confirmation, show me the dates, total cost, and any personal details you entered so I can check them.
