Somme rental companies have websites you can use. Bear in mind most of 
these sites will use euros in their pricing. If you know any Portuguese, 
there are a couple of sites entirely in Portuguese, though several have 
English pages.

One English-language, all islands rental company we have used many times is 
Ilha 
Verde: http://www.ilhaverde.com/en/

You can also look on Azores.com's rental page: http://www.azores.com/car

On Faial itself: http://www.autoturisticafaialense.com/

You can easily find rental companies through an Internet search using the 
terms "rental car" and "Faial" or "Azores."

Important to remember: On most islands, rental car inventory is limited 
year-round and in many cases cars are shipped in for the summer season, 
either from San Miguel or the continent, according to projected demand. You 
must set up a reservation NOW if you want to have a car when you arrive. 
May and June usually have good availability, but July is difficult and 
August nearly impossible without an advanced reservation. On Pico, I know 
locals who rent out their cars, and in August they are the only option for 
visitors who have not already reserved by early June.
