I make my living with my taxi. 12 weeks ago the gearbox 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 2 children. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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 $250 goes:
• Labor charges: $20
• gearbox replacement (parts): $175
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $55

good luck, Huda. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
