I make my living with my motorbike. 4 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,050. 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 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 $1,050 goes: • rear axle replacement (parts): $570 • Labor charges: $250 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $140 • Towing and inspection: $90 Glad we found this place.

  • Praying for you. Small businesses are the heart of Bordeaux. Hope you're open again soon. Put this on a community board in Port Harcourt this morning. Greetings from Port Harcourt

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Isabelle.

      • Isabelle VasseurOwnerAnswer

        Rear axle replacement (parts) is $570 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Let me know if you want more detail.

    • Thinking of you, Isabelle. I'd happily buy from you once you're back up. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless

      • can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Bordeaux.

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about rear axle replacement (parts), advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.

      • You're not alone. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.

        • Hope things get better soon, Isabelle. Hope you get there. Love from Indore.

            Hope this works out for you. Don't give up. Thinking of Bordeaux.

            • Take care. Hope you make a strong comeback. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

              • Good luck, Isabelle. Hope you get there. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

                • sending good thoughts, Isabelle. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings
