Dealership Nightmare!!!

Last night I dreamed that I had taken my car to the dealership to have brake pads put on and when they put my car up on the lift it ROLLED OFF backwards!! There was a very loud crash and I went to see what happened. In my dream the whole ass end was smashed in and the rest of the car was just kinda hanging on to the lift. Then the mechanic told me NOT TO WORRY! He said "this happens more than you would think" LOL! I was completely furious and went to the warranty department and they said that what happened WASN"T COVERED under warranty!!! I was soo pissed off and I kept arguing with them and they kept saying I need to call my insurance people. Then I woke up to my alarm and was completely relieved that it was only a dream. I looked out the window and my baby was sitting right where I left her in my parking spot completely safe!

What a crazy dream huh?

Worked in a shop and I have actually seen it happen, more than once!

When it really happens to someone- dont worry!
The repair shop has insurance which covers it - so no sweat to you
And it will total your car with any luck!

A freaky dream OR a phrophetic message from beyond.....????????????
Only time and this thread will tell

In thinking about this dream some more...

The really DISTURBING part to me-

I'm hoping that it's not a prophetic message of any sorts. My father who was a mechanic has seen it happen too. I don't really no why i even posted this, it was only some crazy ass dream about my car....the first time I can recall ever dreaming about my car in fact...but she's new to me so maybe that's "normal". who knows?

Good point, if you didn't see the good side of it. BTW, was it wet?
