My ride-share car: Julieta's only way to earn a living

Without my ride-share car Julieta can't work; a $900 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 4 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $900. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked nine 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $900 goes: • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $490 • Labor charges: $240 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $160 • Towing and inspection: $10 If you're reading this, thank you. - Julieta
