Renate needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in Dortmund
Without my ride-share car Renate cannot work; a $1,100 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 10 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,100. 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 4 children. 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Towing and inspection: $50
• rear axle replacement (parts): $880
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $170
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

So sorry you're going through this, Renate. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Dortmund.
