Mehul needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Jalandhar

Mehul drives for a living in Jalandhar, and a broken gearbox has stopped all income for 4 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $150. 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 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 $150 goes: • gearbox replacement (parts): $85 • Labor charges: $20 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $35 • Towing and inspection: $10 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    This helper is honest and transparent about what they can do. They didn't overpromise, but they did deliver excellent results. I would definitely trust them again.

      Take care. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Pretoria this morning.

            Wishing you the best, Mehul. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Jalandhar.
