Father Janovich: Why didn't you call the police?
Walt Kowalski: Well you know, I prayed for them to come but nobody answered.
Factual error: Walt says he worked at the factory where his Gran Torino was built, and in fact installed the steering column on it. The Gran Torino in 1972 was built only at the Ford plant in Lorain, Ohio, at least two hours from Detroit, and Walt had been a long time resident of the Detroit neighborhood he lives in, as he stated he had seen its demise and an influx of immigrants. With other Ford factories being much closer, it's not likely he would commute that far. His pickup truck, in fact, was built in the Detroit area, and he much more likely would worked on it, instead of the Torino.
Continuity: At the end of the movie, Walt Kowalski draws a cigarette lighter out of his jacket with his right hand pretending it's a gun. He gets shot and dies with his arms extended outright. However, the lighter has magically changed to his left hand as Walt is seen from head down and on his back.
