The worst bad luck!!!!!!

Al right just to start off with. the day i bought my 2006 cobalt ss/sc, my front spindles gave out and cracked, so i took it back tot he dealer, the day i got the car back, it had a acceleration rod knock. # 4 rod bearing. WHEN I GOT THE AR BACK, mY CAT LITTERALLY EXPLODED, KABOOM. aFTER I GOT MY CAR BACK, ITS BEEN GREAT TILL I MOVED BACK TO KENTUCKY FROM CALIFORNIA. wITHIN THE FIRST COUPLE MONTHS BACK, I BROKE not one, not two, not three, not four, bu five roll pins and one bolt/nut. Andwhen i was done getting the 3 one fixed i drove my car for a few weeks, and my wireing harness caught on fire including my pcm. GM SAID PCM, SHORTED OUT. So after i got that fixed nto even 5 days later i hit a animal, and caused 10K$ in damages. So i finished that project up about a month back or two. So i was driving down a main rd from my town i live in to a place called elizabethtown kentucky. And in doing so, a trail blazer from OKLAHOMA decides to murge into my lane without caring if he hits my car. Well he pushed me into a damn dith and made me stop from a 55 roll to a omph roll. The dude took off, and i caught up with the idiot. I call the police, i give the police my side of the story, and then i hear the idiot drivers side. He says: " He was swerving in and out of traffic almost maing people wreck and he hit me when he merged into my lane. What is so funny about this is. My wife took a picture of the dude on her iphone being stupid and when he merged into my lane and hit us. The cops seen it, and this idiot didnt. I mean i dont even drive like that. swerving in and out of traffic. yeah not responsible lol. But anyways the reaon i brought this up was, people tell me my car is jnxed (Hopefully i spelt that right) And they tell me to get rid of it. I just put about 10K In the car, including all my performance parts. Like new engine, ported blower, pulley, hp tuners and so forth. What do you all think i should do?

I had similar (though not nearly as extensive) with my moms car when I was younger. It was a Saturn, I cracked the windshield hit 2 dear put it in a field (snow/ice) then bent the car in half again snow and ice... All of that happened in the span of roughly a month. After that I refused to ever own a Saturn... though thats not really an issue anymore. Sorry to hear about your bad luck though.

I was planning to mod my car. But, I am trying to get it paid off first. I've been tossing an extra grand a month on it. But then this month my rear brakes died and my heater cracked the windshield... haha And then last month I got to change the tires. It's not making it easy to throw the cash at it.

You can buy sea salt anywhere. Get an obsidian stone aswell and keep it in the car.
