Daniela needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Oakland

Without my ride-share car Daniela can't work; a $1,600 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,600. 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 younger brothers and sisters. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $1,600 goes: • rear axle replacement (parts): $930 • Labor charges: $320 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $145 • Towing and inspection: $205 Every share and every dollar helps.
