Hi, my name is Sierra. I have had a difficult few years and I am struggling to get myself out of a rough patch. I grew up in an abusive hous
My car is in need of major repairs that will cost over $1000. There are more details on the campaign itself, but long story short, I was let go from my job in January and have been struggling to find a better one. I have a degree, experience, and a network, but can barely get my foot in the door anywhere. I have a part time job as a janitor but it pays poorly and I am struggling to get by. It’s better than nothing, so I still need it to keep myself going as I am searching for a better job. I would also like to start looking further out for work, and I can’t do that with my car basically needing to stay local in its current shape. It took me over a year to escape living with my abusive family, and I’m constantly afraid that my only option if things get worse would be having to live with them again and I think that would break me. I know I am constantly asking for help on here. I am really sorry to keep doing that. I’m hoping that getting my car in good shape will help me eventually find something better.
If you can’t donate on Chuffed, I’m moominhands on cshapp/vnmo and PayPal is here. Thank you
Hi guys! Good news/bad news from my car’s inspection. Again, thank you so much for your kindness. With what I’ve fundraised, I can either fix the most recent/pressing problem ($1,139.61 fan replacement) or the two old problems ($803.95 vapor canister and $285.96 drive belt respectively), but not all three. I’m prioritizing the worst to keep my car running, but the other two problems are still time sensitive and may get worse. I am moving in with my friends soon because there’s little work opportunity where I live in the boonies, I am constantly struggling to make ends meet on my own, and I’d like to put distance between me and my family. My friends are letting me stay with them free of charge while I get back on my feet. I badly need a functional car to find work. I would like to be able to help them out and move on to my own place ASAP.
I hate to do this, but I would like to start fundraising again for car repair. My credit is not good enough to finance this. More details, plus photos of the shop’s estimates below. I’ll be updating the Chuffed with this info, but as of right now my new goal is $1089 to cover parts and labor. I don’t expect to meet this goal, I’ve already asked a lot, but anything helps!
Earlier this year, I brought my car in bc after I fueled it up, the car wouldn’t start unless I revved the accelerator. The shop replaced the small part making this happen, but the overall issue was caused by a larger part, the vapor canister, letting off bits of charcoal and other debris into a valve
The issue with my fan that I detailed in my Chuffed campaign is a newer problem. When I shut the car off, the fan wouldn’t stop running and would promptly drain the battery. I got a temporary kill switch put on so I can drive in case of emergency, but this obviously is not sustainable. The shop says the whole part has been destroyed from an old collision and needs replaced.
The tech at the shop says it’s a good sign that I haven’t had issues with fueling. I brought my car in for that issue over half a year ago at this point. The vapor canister definitely needs replaced eventually, but is no longer a priority. I’m fine with that. They are a little more concerned about the serpentine belt, which is worn. It is literally not safe to drive without this belt.
My front bumper and grill is also fucked up, which is initially part of what I was fundraising for, but they said they zip tied it for me to keep it in place lol so I’m just not worrying about that for now. Car doesn’t need to be pretty, I just need it to drive… 😭
Bonus from my attempt at seeing if I could finance this repair 😔
