Warranty?! Errors appear after 4 months.

I was looking for a good quality 16GB micro SD card to use as a hard drive in my Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi is an extremely small one Computer measuring approximately 5 x 3 x 2 inches. These small but powerful computers are used for things like controlling automatic Christmas lights; I use mine for a graphics intensive application called Kodi. This micro SD card was purchased at the end of June 2019. The Raspberry Pi doesn't have a traditional hard drive, they are very compact and use the micro SD card as the hard drive. So today I was looking for a very high quality card with a relatively small footprint, since it is a critical repository for the operating system. I've had this for a few months now and I'm noticing more and more fatal errors reading and writing to the disk. I pulled out the micro SD card and deep formatted it a few times to let the air in. I only paid about $6 for it, but I was willing to spend more to get a very stable, reliable drive. It's not a drive. While relatively small by today's standards, it's probably great for storing pictures, videos, and more, but then again, 16GB fits in a Cheerios box these days. Memory has become phenomenally cheap. So I'm looking for the best flash drive, usually Samsung drives were rock solid, I can go in that direction. Indeed, it should be under warranty. If vendors have ever read reviews; I got a bad card guys. Help me. I'm noticing more and more serious read and write errors on the drive.
