My ride-share car: Levi's only way to earn a living
Levi's my ride-share car is Levi's only source of income and needs a transmission replacement costing $1,000.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 3 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,000. 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 three 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 $1,000 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $620
• Towing and inspection: $85
• Labor charges: $295
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

this could happen to any of us. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
Thinking of you and your family, Levi. Small businesses are the heart of Fort Worth. Hope you're open again soon.
Your post was clear and honest. Love from Pune.
Wishing you the best, Levi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to San Francisco so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
Rooting for you. Shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Bristol.
