Travis needs my ride-share car repaired to get back to work in San Antonio
Travis drives for a living in San Antonio, and a broken rear axle has stopped all income for 3 weeks.

I make my living with my ride-share car. 3 weeks ago the rear axle failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,700. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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 $1,700 goes:
• rear axle replacement (parts): $1,150
• Labor charges: $250
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $220
• Towing and inspection: $80
With deep gratitude,
Travis
