Na-young needs my food truck repaired to get back to work in Daegu

Without my food truck Na-young can't work; a $750 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my food truck. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $750. 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 twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six 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 $750 goes: • Road tax and insurance renewal: $210 • Labor charges: $145 • radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $395 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Na-young

    • Na-young Mi-young HanOwnerAnswerID verified

      Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. road tax and insurance renewal comes first ($210) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.
