Help Sônia replace the transmission and return to work
Sônia's my delivery van is Sônia's only source of income and needs a transmission replacement costing $500.
🇧🇷 São Paulo, Brazil904 views
I make my living with my delivery van. 4 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 nine 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 $500 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $270
• Labor charges: $110
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $85
• Towing and inspection: $35
Thank you so much.
