Chief GAZZUZZ abeg, What is your take on using Ford Fiesta for uber services? Looking at it from the point of reliability, access to parts in Nigeria and durability. The engine is 1.6 too.

demolaxl:
Is toyota highlander 03 v6 a good car for uber?

oluwaseunla:


What year is your Ford Fiesta? Generally, access to some parts may be a little challenging is very challenging, since the car is not in the American market. But then you can always buy parts from abroad and ship in, if you don't mind if you are up to it.

ice4u999:


2011 Ford Fiesta. Shipping part is the most challenging part o. Because sending parts by sea takes a minimum of 50 days and to me that is a lot of weeks of losing 35k

ice4u999:

No still negotiating with a private seller. Trying to bring down the price.

But the parts issue dey give me serious concern.

ewebiodun:

That's not how it works bro, u can't know the exact rating a rider gave u. Because ur rating came down right after a trip doesn't mean it was that parti ular trip that caused it

Ifeanyimark:


What did u tell ur mechanic, i wan do my own on monday

slamstanlee:
on uber, if a rider rate u low like 1star... Instantly you will know, it could drop by 2 or 3 points. Taxify may reflect after some days

nitigriti:
Hello, just learn how to use the apps ( Uber or Taxify), Google maps and good customer service ... Trust me, there will be no where in Lagos that you won't be able to take anybody to

ewebiodun:

Sorry bro.If u don't mind, u really need to change ur device and also what network are u using for ur internet.
Also u need to be sure google maps is working on ur phone, if it doesn't u are going to be getting lots of these failed trips

lekanlaniyan:


I always check my rating immediately after every trips.

lekanlaniyan:
Good day all, I was in the filling station from 3am to 7:30am before I could buy fuel.

I got a request around 8:30am( sleep still dey eye).

I went to pick the rider going to Airport from Katampe extension estate(Abuja). The cost was #3,000.00. I humbly Begged we do the trip offline and we bargained for #4,500.00.

I explained y we should do it offline. 1. I can't pick a rider from airport. 2. The fee is too small 3. The stress of sleeping in the filling station to buy fuel.

She agreed and we cancelled the trip. When I check my rating, she gave me 3 star .


Always pray to meet riders with good heart.

I asked to him to drive it and tell me his thoughts, he said it may be linkeage and suspension. (Fortunately, I just changed my linkeage). I said no, that he should check the brake pad, that it's not held in place properly (too much room). We loosened the tires and found the two thin u-shaped metal plate holding the brake pads in place were loose. He then said he'll do sth about it, but didn't want to tell me what he wanted to do. Lo and behold! He wanted to pack it with paper. Lol. But we later packed it Sha, cos I didn't have 3k to change the metal plates , poor me.

ridwanadedapo:
So I picked this lady on this day from Lekki to somewhere in Ajah and during the trip she told me I will have to wait for her and take her to Airport Omo I happy, I told her I will charge her 1k per hour as waiting fee and she was like is that part of Uber terms I said na this is Naija Uber terms are designed for Yankee people and she laughed meanwhile during her conversation While on phone I heard when she said it will be hard to get Uber from her house then I tapped to that. when we got to Ajah I told her Pls be fast ma she said just 30mins, Fam 30mins turns 2 hours and still waiting. Me I Dey check my other phone to see if surge go dey. Like play like play this mad 2.0 surge just came from no where, I just cancelled this trip gbam and screenshot the trip fee and I called her to inform her Uber just ended the trip cos I spend more than 2 hours on this trip already and she came out, I politely explained that stuff and I told her to request me again so I won’t get request from other rider, madam just request and na 2.1 surge she didn’t even know not until we got to Airport, her total fare was around 17k. In whatever we do, no one will tell you everything instead you need to develop yourself more. I don’t joke when it comes to money and I will give you value for your money. Never settle for less. Love you all

Carshopper:

Very true

No kia rio ni? 2007-2011?

ice4u999:


No good deal yet. The ones I see are just rediculosly priced but my eye still open

slamstanlee:
Yesterday was a miracle. I went to apapa and came back unhurt... After rider begged and assured me there wont be traffic and the roads to marine road were all dry.. Lol. And as i was finding my way out of the trap another request popped in... Straight to ketu. What a day!

mployer:


Thanks bro

nitigriti:


Welcome sir. I can teach you how to use Google maps for ehailing ... you will be able to navigate anywhere once you use your good customer service skills to request drop off location from your rider. It will take about 3 hours and will cost you nothing. Just reach out to me when you are ready

Romeo3:
Unless you do not want to be waitlisted and eventually blacklisted, perfect rating is a must. Uber/Taxify will block you without seeing your car. They base their judgement on rider ratings.

ignore at your own risk.

iyaegin:
hello peeps.i got a message from Uber about having a high number of cancelled trips and am wondering cos at least 4 of those cancelled trips were rider no shows and i noticed it increased immeditely after the last one so please what do i do...no be my fault say rider no show na??

Carshopper:


Haba ... check salvage auction broda.... Copart n iaai ...

ice4u999:


Thanks for letting me in on this o. You know I never knew of a place like this till now. It has always been regal auctions and a second one in Edmonton.

GAZZUZZ:


problem is not the meta plates, but the brakepad . The length of the pad is shorter than actual design by about 0.5cm
