Why do I have bad luck?

[R1KR0X]

About 3 weeks ago my '13 Sonic 1.4 started shaking and sputtering. CEL P0171 came on. I traced the problem back to my PCV valve. So I ordered a new valve cover (thank you for that great design Chevy). Last Sunday, during install, a bolt broke. WHY?! Okay, not really a big deal. I got the new part, pulled the old bolt with ease, but right as I was about to reinstall the new valve cover, massive rainstorm opens right over me.

Why do I just get the worst luck ever?

There is a thread here on how to fic the PCV valve problem forever using the old valve cover and a separate external PCV valve. You're right. . bad design.
