Yes, there is.

Getting a call from your pregnant wife, who is three hours away, that the car has broken down and she is stranded on the side of an interstate because your car, which has a major meltdown once every six months, broke its timing belt.

This is the worst, knowing your stranded and you feel your gut sink.

When the cops are chasing you and you're too drunk to find your car?

Going outside on a Saturday morning to find that your Van has been stolen. Then getting back a week later and have it stolen again the next Saturday.

Car starts up fine, but goes nowhere. Turns out to be the tranny. That was fixed at a cost of $3000 7 months earlier. Worse, you are stuck in East Jeebus, Pa in a snowstorm on your way to visit your parents for Christmas.

So I guess, yes, there is! :)

Same thing happened to my car once. I was in Northern MI, several miles north of Paradise, near Whitefish Bay. :td

Waiting two weeks for repairs after your wife hits a deer with your car (and shelling out a $200 deductible), then having same car fail inspection due to a rotted sub-frame.

yes much worse.

Opening your humi and finding beetles and holes in your cigars.

There are lots of bad things that can happen. Most of the time things are not as bad as the seem initially -- thank God!

I hope that is the same for you -- only a dead battery!

No No No! The worst thing is to get in your car, turn the key, and Jack Elam pops his head out of the glove compartment claiming that you owe him money.

He was pulling in to traffic and someone changed lanes right into him, pulling off his front bumper.

Yes there is....going to your car, looking for the keys, only to see them laying on your seat, then, knowing that you have a spare key on your key ring, which you realize, you also left inside the car...damn
