Hello friends of Hive and Hive Motors, I hope everyone is doing well. Today I wanted to share with you something that happened to me yesterday afternoon with the car when I went with my family to take Matias to chess practice, a pretty big scare that got us completely out of control but thank God it was solved.
It turns out that when I was locating a stall in the parking lot of the Ecocenter shopping center, and I take the return and turn the steering wheel to the left, suddenly I feel a blow on the steering wheel and it goes completely and I lose control of the direction of the car, thank God that I was going slow and I had time to stop the car and not crash it into the front wall.
I get out of the car and I take a look at the steering jack because it is damaged, and I thought it could be that, but I didn't see anything on the outside that would indicate that it had been broken. I call the mechanic to see if he could help me, but at that moment he was assembling a box to a car and had to deliver it in an hour and could not come, I asked him what could it be and he told me that there are several things that could have caused that, and that the best thing was to take it home in a tow truck because if it was the steering jack it had to be disassembled and it was too late to go to buy a spare part because it was almost 5 pm and all the parts stores close at 5 pm.

Resulta que cuando estaba ubicando un puesto en el estacionamiento del centro comercial Ecocenter, y tomo el retorno y giro el volante hacia la izquierda, de repente se siente un golpe en el volante y este se va completo y queda girando y pierdo el control de la dirección del auto, gracias a Dios que iba lento y me dió tiempo de frenar el carro y no estrellarlo en la pared del frente.
Me bajo del carro y le echo un ojo al gato de la dirección porque este lo tengo dañado, y pensé que podía ser eso, pero no le ví nada por fuera que me indicará que se habia roto. Llamo al mecánico para ver si me podía auxiliar, pero en ese momento estaba montando una caja a un carro y tenía que entregarlo en una hora y no podía venir, le pregunté que podía ser y me dijo que son varias cosas que pudieron peovocar eso, y que lo mejor era llevarlo a la casa en una grúa porque si era el gato de la dirección había que desarmarlo y ya era tarde para ir a comprar algún repuesto porque eran casi las 5 de la tarde y todas las tiendas de repuestos cierran a las 5 pm.

At the entrance of the mall there is a line of cabs and one of the drivers asked me what was wrong with the car and I told him the situation, he told me that it could be the cardan shaft of the steering wheel that came out and to check under the steering wheel, near the pedals.
I went to the car, removed the cover of the fusiblera to work more comfortable but I really do not know anything about it, at the end I located where the cardan could be but I could not do anything because it is protected with a dust cover and I did not have the tools.
In the end they were able to communicate with the mechanic and he came to check the car, and the first thing he did was to turn the steering wheel and told me it could be the cardan, checked the steering jack where the rod enters and then went under the steering wheel removed the dust cover and the cardan had come out.
He asked me if they had recently done any work there, I told him no, that more than 10 years ago the steering jack had been repaired but nothing else.

En la entrada del centro comercial está una linea de taxis y uno de los choferes me preguntó que tenía el carro y le conté la situación, él me dijo que podía ser el cardan de la dirección que se salió y que revisara abajo del volante, cerca de los pedales.
Fuí hasta el carro, retire la tapa de la fusiblera para trabajar más cómodo pero realmente de eso no se nada, al final ubiqué donde podía estar el cardan pero no podía hacer nada porque está protegido con un guarda polvo y no tenía las herramientas.
Al final se pudieron comunicar con el mecánico y este se acercó a revisar el carro, y lo primero que hizo fue girar el volante y me dijo que podía ser el cardan, reviso el gato de la dirección en la parte dónde entra la barra y luego fue debajo del volante retiró el guarda polvo y el cardan se había salido.
Me preguntó si recientemente habían realizado algún trabajo ahí, yo le dije que no, que hace más de 10 años que se había mandado a reparar el gato de la direccion pero más nada.
He explained to me that they did not put the rod in completely, that most likely they put the screw that adjusts the cardan shaft first and then they put the rod in and as the screw was there it could not enter completely, that I was lucky that it was here in the parking lot and not on the highway that it came loose. What he did was to put the mechanism back together again, put the rod in completely, put the screw in and adjusted it.
In the end we ended up giving thanks to God that it did not happen, and that it was not on the road that happened, but in the parking lot that I was going slow because it would have been dangerous to happen to us on the highway and we were all in the car because we were planning to go to La Vela Shopping Center after classes, and then with all this we did not feel like it and when Matías finished we went home.
Well friends that was the last incident that thank God took care of us and we were able to solve. Have a good weekend.

Me explicó que no metieron completo la barra, que lo más seguro es que colocaron primero el tornillo que ajusta el cardan y luego metieron la barra y como estaba el tornillo está no pudo entrar completamente, que tuve suerte que fue acá en el estacionamiento y no en la autopista que se soltó eso. Ya lo que hizo fue armar otra vez el mecanismo, introdujo completa la barra, le colocó el tornillo y lo ajusto.
Al final terminamos dando gracia a Dios que no pasó a mayores, y que no fue en la vía que pasó eso, sino en el estacionamiento que yo iba lento porque hubiese sido peligroso que nos pasara en la autopista y en el carro íbamos todos porque pensábamos ir al C.C. La Vela después de las clases, que después con todo esto se nos quitaron las ganas y al terminar Matías nos fuimos a la casa.
Bueno amigos ese fue el último incidente que gracias a Dios nos cuidó y pudimos solventar. Que tengan un buen fin de semana.
