Can't catch a break

On the way to work yesterday my rear tire was flat. While filling it up the air stem broke off. I was shocked. All the air blew out. Thankfully I decided to leave for work a few minutes early. After changing the tire I made it to work late, but with time to get  my flight off the gate on time. I figured it would be like a $40 repair. Nope. $130! Since 2007 all cars must have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System installed. This means more things to break. I feel this should be under warranty, but it will be hard to prove as it's physically broken. Not happy. After being sick for more than a week I get kicked with a flat tire then this morning I get slapped with a hefty repair bill. Hope this streak ends soon.
