I've got roughly 75% failure rate with shared urban e-scooters. Roughly 1 in 4 even starts or accelerates. Various cities and countries.

I really like the idea and want to use them but most of them aren't maintained properly and just clutter the streets.

Rent e-scooters or owned ones?

I have roughly 1500 km on my escooter with 2 structural failures, but that's mostly from using it in totally different way, than it was designed.

But it seems like I fixed that with reinforced stem holder.

Never had an electric issue though.

are they Lime scooters?

We have a company called Voi operating them where I live and I’ve only had one issue with a scooter. They seem to do a good job of keeping them repaired and maintained.

But we also have to dock them in specific bays - which might make managing them easier. You get fined if you don’t. I think Lime lets you park anywhere - at least that’s how I remember my experience in Prague when I used them a couple of years ago.

@rowan_johnson Lime at home and here in Pula, Croatia where we're vacationing it's called TIER - but when I was searching for this brand name in the app store, Lime also came up, so maybe it's just local branding?
