My ride-share car: Tanvir's only way to earn a living
Without my ride-share car Tanvir can't work; a $150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 3 weeks ago the rear axle 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $150 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $25
• rear axle replacement (parts): $120
• Towing and inspection: $5
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

hope you make a strong comeback. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Barranquilla.
