I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 2 children. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $300 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $210
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55
• Towing and inspection: $10
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. We're a small family in Istanbul but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Surakarta.
