I enjoy my Ralliart, but I think it's cursed!

I explained it before somewhere, but I'm pretty sure it's because of the angle that the pad contacts the rotor. Ever slid something on a surface and had it jump up and down going one way, but move smoothly if you move it the other way? Same deal with the pads, just microscopic (and very fast) jumping.

Before getting her home after buying her, a rock was kicked up into my windshield which cracked it. Plenty of door dings have occurred. She's been through two tornadoes. My "friend" drove her over a curb (since he's never paid me back, he's no longer a friend). A rock was kicked up under my hood which hit my clutch fork just the right way to break it. A gasket was left off of the firewall when service techs where looking at it. It took my two months to figure out why she was filled with water after every rain. There have been many other misfortunes.

Recently, I took her to church with me and had the resident pastor perform some blessings on her. We had had no issues since. I recommend that you guys have your cars blessed as well.
