Get Zoë back on the road: my ride-share car repair fund
Zoë drives for a living in The Hague, and a broken suspension has stopped all income for 7 weeks.
🇳🇱 The Hague, South Holland, Netherlands2,021 views
I make my living with my ride-share car. 7 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,750. 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 family of five. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $1,750 goes:
• suspension replacement (parts): $1,100
• Labor charges: $340
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $220
• Towing and inspection: $90
I hope life is good to you.
