I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $250 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $185
• Towing and inspection: $30
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending love. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Latina!
