My ride-share car: Usman's only way to earn a living
Without my ride-share car Usman can't work; a $300 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 7 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $300. 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 eleven 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 $300 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $185
• Labor charges: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Towing and inspection: $35
Glad we found this place.
