Kozhikode

I make my living with my pickup. 4 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $250. 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 four 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 $250 goes: • Towing and inspection: $25 • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $195 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $30 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Karan
