Uber crash: Cars go missing from ride-sharing app

Cars are going missing from the Uber app.

After first being reported on 3AW Breakfast, the ride-sharing business has confirmed a technology fault this morning.

The intermittent error means users can see no available cars when they log-in, frustrating both passengers and drivers.

“We understand this is super frustrating, and hope to be up and running shortly.”
