I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,250. 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 4 children. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $1,250 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $750
• Labor charges: $180
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $240
• Towing and inspection: $80
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
