I make my living with my ride-share car. 10 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $850. 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 three 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 $850 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $360
• Labor charges: $110
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $270
• Towing and inspection: $110
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you and your family, Oskar. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Jimma.
