What does that have to do with knowing that you have a faulty memory? Had you forgotten that was the subject under consideration?

Human memory is demonstrably unreliable; it is a result of how the brain stores and recalls memories.
If you have a human brain, your memory is unreliable. Not even the very few hyperthymesiacs, people with highly-superior autobiographical memory (HSAM), have perfect memories. See People with Super Memories (note also the links at the bottom of that article.)
"Lawrence Patihis from University of California, Irvine has shown that people with HSAM are also vulnerable to exactly the same sorts of memory distortions that the rest of us suffer.
...
“We thought that maybe they have a new way of remembering, a new mechanism that’s different to normal people. But now, we think that they’re remembering in the same fallible, malleable way as everybody else. They’re doing something that gives them high accuracy.”
Even people who can remember what they ate for dinner thirty years ago are not immune to false memories."
