Although may days and times na high in demand ang Grab/Uber rides, I'm presuming na hindi naman ganun kalakas/frequent na may passenger siya all the time to the extent that he/she'd have switched the engine on & off more than what can be considered "normal" use for a day- perhaps to the extent na considered "heavy" use siguro but not that masira yung starter- note, I'm not saying it can't happen though. Wala pa naman taxi nagpareplace sa amin ng starter that I remember.

If the TS is that successful sa ganun kataas na volume ng rides niya, oh well, don't worry about it, sa dami na ng kinikita mo, just buy a new car and a new starter for the old one. Eh di dalawa na pang uber/grab unit mo
so what you are saying, is that in your experience as a transport operator, you feel the starter is up to the rigors imposed on it naman.
