Help Santhosh replace the rear axle and return to work

Without my tuk-tuk Santhosh can't work; a $150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 4 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 twelve 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 $150 goes: • rear axle replacement (parts): $120 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $20 • Towing and inspection: $10 If you're reading this, thank you. - Santhosh

      • Hope things get better soon, Santhosh. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Jimma.

        • Hope it all works out, Santhosh. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Leicester this morning.
