I make my living with my taxi. 8 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $100. 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 nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $100 goes: โ€ข suspension replacement (parts): $65 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $15 โ€ข Labor charges: $20 Glad we found this place. - Sushma
