My name is Ramon Ulloa and I recently had my only working car give up on me. My 2004 Ford Taurus was my only source of transportation and I relied on it for everything, from delivery for DoorDash, medical appointments (for my mother and me), groceries, and traveling to visit my daughter in Nevada.

My vehicle had many little issues that I slowly took care of myself until bigger issues arrived. I took care of my rear brake and leaking master cylinder, also repaired a vacuum leak and replaced the driver's side CV shaft. Now, my car battery died completely, and days later, the transmission gave out on my car.

I was currently DoorDashing as my primary source of income while struggling to find a consistent job. Now without a car, parts have cost me almost as much as the value of the car. Now with the transmission and other small issues, it's not worth spending more on repairs. So, I am asking for help to be able to buy a used, more reliable car to get back on the road for deliveries and have some type of income. I'm just trying to make enough for a down payment so I can finance a more reliable car. I appreciate any help. Thank you for your time.
