steering wheel turns/spins 360 degrees
I was driving home when I notice my steering wheel was up side down so on my next turn I paid more attention and when I turned I could feel it slipping. I made it home put my car in park and turned the wheel and it just kept turning and turning, no locking, no wheels moving, nothing. HELP!

pope191:


I'm fighting hard to believe u r not a robot, but on d second tot u may not b. Soh down to business, what's the life span for keke napep if I may ask, if u can save 600k, why can't you endure some more to make it 800k? Used to envy keke income till I got involved, nothing is as it seem, even in this business. Keke drivers on truck b/c roads r prone to different kind of stuffs and need u know deh r regular lasma/touts costumer. Last month I was talking to one of them that run on truck D road and he made me to understand he can make between 10 to 12k on a very good day, chairman will take 2500 in the morning for park, other money I can't remember all in total was going close to 3800, he will buy fuel as well, I was just like dis is not it for me, can't invest in dis again. Need you know keke does not have a second hand value and you may not b able to get any good money in bulk. But you may get a uber car for 1 million, make 1.5/2million from it and still sell for 800k, do the maths.

When you said uber partners don't make money, I don't know how you think keke investors make money without glitches, when u sit at home and do the 25k weekly maths, hopefully it goes that way, but sorry business is never like that, unforeseen circumstances will hit you and if u r not strong the pressure will break you. My advice to you if you have 600k as you said, stay strong and make more or seek for loan, you will get a fit uber car for 900k that is going to serve you will and you will b able to buy the 1.8 corolla you long for and still keep that while you have your peace of mind and sanity in check.

I have actually cross check everything before I conclude.

900k Uber car will take you to mechanic every day and remember this is my last money then if I go for loan and car continue to give trouble where will I get another loan to fix the car?

You buy brand new Keke for 600k it comes with warranty, in 1 year you make above 1m by taking 25k weekly rental and sell for 350k. You compare both and tell yourself the truth.

Uber favour we drivers, owners hardly make money. Dru once said he lost money and reinvested, alot of people jump on the fence.

I don't have money for uber car, and I won't involve with buying dead car. So let me start with Keke

Afternoon Elders, i just realised this afternoon that my car handbrake has refused to go down (its stiff) and car movement stalled too (Drive and reverse).
I just decided to drive it out and get fuel this afternoon and i noticed.
What could be the cause?
Low fuel or what?
Its a Tokunbo Ford which has not been driven out of the compound since it came few weeks ago due to delay in vehicle registration since it came in.

The kind rider I have on me now is more then temptation, I'm just holding not losing it, from silverbird road to con oil iketa to fill gas, while filling, she ask me to leave engine running and I try to explain to her that it will only consume my fuel. Later she said we should go to the eatery at Enyo opposite con oil, done getting food, she said she want to use the ATM inside same feeling station, I have to crack the engine for that again. After going back to the gas station, she still took time transferring to the gas seller and now she's using me to buy food stuff at the market beside silver bird road... All this stress won't go beyond 1k, I'm exhausted. It is well

go for d 2005 Camry. Don’t use any care above 2006 on ehailing for now. Most cars from 2007 have more sensors. U need an ordinary and easy going car for this job.

Uber has mostly been a good way for me to travel around town, prices are good, supply seems to be there, so mostly seems good as a decent extra job.

Do you think someone on this forum have not bought a car of 900k and break even with it? When I say seek for loan, I'm talking of 100/150k, with the presumed energy you put in, it shouldn't take you 3 weeks to clear that.

You think you will just buy keke 600k and zoom of work starts, pls r you going to pay for park or get a plate number? Did you try to input the cost of that too? And please stop saying 25k in a year, there is variance in business, learnt to keep space for that.

I'll plead with you to stop saying owners are not making money, are you trying to say it safe for owner to increase rentage to 40/45k since you guys make much more. You make 12500 with 3k fuel, owner takes 5k, the company takes 25/15 percent, please how much is left that makes you to make money then the owner?

Na so dem dey talk. Same money Honda Civic 03 is making is what corolla 07 or 09 will make. People are erking a living here bro.

You don't have a car yet you dey find 07 corolla. Wetin concern riders with year of car? When the car is clean, well maintained, driver cautious and professional... . money will hit the bank.

Hahahhaha you dunno wats going on...

Bad Rating delays your request... later year categorize you...

Think deep...

It took me time to discover this... the programmers did serious work on that app on ur phone.... (so many if, else handlers and catchers)

All this people in the offices here in Nigeria are marketers not programmers so they can’t tell u how it works..

In the us if u use a high brand car u get more request dan the others... cus they want to give their customers good service.

Ratings has Little effect...

I drive on uber too...so I know the business...
Go to any bank of your choice....I would say first bank....u should get a loan....

Here again u get it wrong... who mention rider here U too read before you argue in public..

Rider is not the bone of contention it’s the service providers am talking about here...

Na them Dey bring the riders... so they are the ones looking out for all this things not the riders....
