We want to self drive through Turkey Syria Jordan. Is it possible to take a hirecar across the borders? If not, what's the alternative?

almost 7 years ago about Turkey

If the vehicle can't be taken across the border is it feasible to drop a vehicle off at a hire car company at/near the border, then get transport across the border and get to another hire car company in the next country.

  It's possible to pass borders by rental but it will be too expensive if you wanna leave the car after you change the country..it's really much more better arranging a car that will wait for you at the border of turkiye.. over 5 years ago

  Hello,
  Hatay, in the southest of Turkiye, has a direct border with Syria. And you can find taxis instead of car rental to go to Syria. I am not sure whether they accept going to Jordan but why not. It depends on the money I guess.
  
  However, that would not be a good plan since the political situation in Syria is not stable for months. It would be better to by-pass Syria and go directly to Jordan by plane. There are direct flights from Turkiye to Jordan. about 5 years ago

  Exp: I am giving the taxi alternative since I think it will be a cheaper solution than car rental + you will have the taxi driver as a guide.
  
  And an update I got yesterday: On some days, Syria closes the borders with Turkiye and and also on some days Turkiye closes the borders with Syria, too.
  + There is a bit an increasing tension between Turkiye and Syria... about 5 years ago
