I make my living with my taxi. 7 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $250 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $175
• Labor charges: $30
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Towing and inspection: $5
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
