Help Luna replace the rear axle and return to work
Luna drives for a living in London, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 8 weeks.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom1,883 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 8 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,850. 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 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 $1,850 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,250
• Labor charges: $370
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $120
• Towing and inspection: $110
If you're reading this, thank you.

so sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Pune this morning!
good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 30 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Huntsville
