problem #4

Malibu 6-cyl

After replacing my intake gasket 8 months ago, my car still overheats. One of my cooling fans is not working. My ac level controls 1 & 2 doesn't work, only 3,4, and 5. ac shuts off on its own. My engine belt went from sqeaking to making a noise I never heard before. Now my car is non operational due to a knocking sound coming from the engine. So far in the past 8 months, I replaced my intake gasket $600, replaced my engine belt cost $120, replaced my brake pads and caliper twice in the past 2 years $250 each time. Now I'm looking at another major repair job. Help me please

Front end was making a grinding noise and it wouldn't stop right away. Dealer both rotors would need to be replaced although one side seemed to be affected. Dealers had no reseasonable explanation for problem. One of the rotors ( the left side) was determind to be bad. Also, the wiper blades scrub the windshield all the time and became worse when new ones were replaced.
