Help Rowan replace the transmission and return to work
Rowan's my taxi is Rowan's only source of income and needs a transmission replacement costing $1,600.

I make my living with my taxi. 4 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,600. 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 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 $1,600 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $95
• transmission replacement (parts): $1,400
• Labor charges: $105
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hang in there, Rowan. Shared this with my family. After 27 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Sending love, Rowan. Shared this with my family. God bless
Hope it all works out. Shared it with a few friends. It's not much but it's yours. All the best
Thinking of you and your family, Rowan. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Mombasa.
hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. Wish I lived closer to Osaka so I could bring a meal.
