Car Repairs
My 2010 Prius needs a new small battery. Not to be confused with the large hybrid system battery, this smaller battery, which has worn out, starts the car and runs the onboard computer.
Because I haven't been able to afford to fix it, the car has been sitting in the parking lot of my apartment complex for several months.
Now, the apartment complex is going to tow it. If I don't get it fixed.
If they tow it, I won't be able to afford the tow and storage charges (in addition to what it would cost to fix the car) and will lose it completely.
At this point, the car needs the following:
Charge to jump start $ 50
Battery $425
Tire (only one) $160 (I can't use cheap tires because they don't support the car, which is heavy due to the hybrid system)
Smog check $ 50
I have added an incidental amount to pay for the 2.9% GoFundMe fees as well.
If you can help, THANK YOU. I don't want to lose my wonderful car.
If you can't, could you please circulate this? That helps, too.
Thank you for reading.
