Help Ximena replace the rear axle and return to work
Without my tuk-tuk Ximena cannot work; a $1,850 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my tuk-tuk. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,850. 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 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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 $1,850 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,050
• Labor charges: $270
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $360
• Towing and inspection: $170
With deep gratitude,
Ximena
