Who believes in a jinxed car?

Bought 2002 Civic for wife on April 26th, 2002. On June 20th 2002, while I was away on a business trip, my wife had a great idea to teach her bro to drive. Bad idea, her bro crashed into a parked car . The car only had 800 miles on it. Obviously I was mad. Anyway later during October of 2002 a girl hit my wife from the rear. Person in front of wife slowed down hard on a curve, wife reacted fast enough but the person behind her did not. It damaged the bumper cover. We got paid from the other person's insurance company but never fixed it. June 28th 2003, a bus that illegally drove on the shoulder of the road tried to sneak in front of my wife. Except the bus did not have enought room, it scrapped the front of the car. The bus driver did not want to stop, luckily my wife caught up with him. Contrary to what my insurance agent said, the bus company was willing to pay for the damages without a big fight.

So there you have it 3 accidents in 1 year and 2 days. Why I think the car is jinxed is that none of them was either my wife's fault (well maybe the 1st one is). The car is like a freaking accident magnet. I am seriously considering trading it in.

yup, my car is jinxed. i bought the car 2 weeks before i got engaged. for those 2 weeks i did nothing but scrap with he wife, day and nite, we almost called it quits. anyways, afetr having the car for 1 month i scraped my lip on a parking curb, my bad, i had drivin pickups up to this point in my life so i was still adjusting to the ride height. 6 months after that i was waiting at a stoplight and got rear ended ($3000), the day before it was goin in to be fixed i was on a job site and the contractor lost a load of 6 pvc sewer lengths(they weigh aprox 600lbs) on the back of my car($5000). on top of that i have had my car in for a total of 17 waranty issues, like my seat, my struts, my window molding, wiper cowl, door seal, etc, thats what i call jinxed.
