Help Andrew replace the fuel pump and return to work
Without my pickup Andrew can't work; a $2,000 repair would put him back on the road.
🇺🇸 Fayetteville, North Carolina, United States2,205 views
I make my living with my pickup. 12 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,000. 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 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 $2,000 goes:
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $1,400
• Labor charges: $175
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $320
• Towing and inspection: $105
Thank you so much.

can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Fayetteville
Thank you. If you're in Fayetteville I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Keep going. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Andrew. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Jessore.
Sending strength, Andrew. Small businesses are the heart of Fayetteville. Hope you're open again soon. Blessings
Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Boulogne-Billancourt so I could bring a meal.
Wishing you the best, Andrew. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
