Rafael needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Rochester
Rafael's my ride-share car is Rafael's only source of income and needs a gearbox replacement costing $1,500.
🇺🇸 Minnesota, United States950 views
I make my living with my ride-share car. 8 weeks ago the gearbox failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,500. 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 family of five. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $1,500 goes:
• gearbox replacement (parts): $810
• Labor charges: $460
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $135
• Towing and inspection: $95
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
