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 $800. 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 4 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $800 goes: โ€ข Towing and inspection: $125 โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $270 โ€ข Labor charges: $405 I hope life is good to you. - Isaiah
