Since I got a new phone, my SD Card has been corrupted multiple times. I can easily fix the corruption when I connect my phone to the laptop with USB but that still does not entirely do justice. Whenever I download wallpapers (proper format and size) for my phone, it gets corrupt and I cannot open them. Also, some of my songs are getting corrupt and I can't play them. This never use to happen with my old phone.
 
How old is the card?

Maybe calling Sandisk. They had a decent sized recall on cards not long ago. Maybe this is one that should have been and slipped through.
 
Also try installing and running SD Insight, which can tell you if the card is what it says it is. There are lots of counterfeit cards out there.

What phone do you have? Let me guess--something Samsung. SD card corruption is a common complaint on these forums when it comes to Samsung devices.
