Help Roberto replace the rear axle and return to work
Roberto's my food truck is Roberto's only source of income and needs a rear axle replacement costing $900.
🇪🇸 Madrid, Spain1,245 views
I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $900. 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 twelve 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $900 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $530
• Labor charges: $145
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $155
• Towing and inspection: $70
Thanks for reading all this.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Love from Adama
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update. Take care.
sending good thoughts, Roberto. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Hang in there, Roberto. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Madrid.
