1 Front Suspension problem

Failure Date: 04/12/2009

2009 Aveo had 17 miles on it when purchased 2 days later car stalled and died out in middle of traffic. Car was in shop for about a week or two first was told it was catalytic converter stopped up then was told it was something with the motor parts was order and problem was fix then about a week later blower motor went out twice dealership didnt know what was wrong with it so they replaced blower motor twice and cigarette light blew out fuses twice as well. Car has blown out 3 headlight bulbs was told there is a short in the switch or somewhere but dealer dont wanna look for the problem, motor is tapping loudly like its not getting oil to the lifter was told two times by two different dealerships that the motor is suppose to tap but when I prechased the vehicle the motor was quiet I took it to a mechanic and was told it was the lifters and theres a problem with the motor also oil is all over the top of the motor around the cap was told by the dealer this is a normal problem they are having to many excuses to not fix the vehicle. There is anotha noise that starts when you first start up the vehicle and dealership is deaf ear to the tapping noise and this noise as well they kept the car for 3 days and couldnt duplicate the noise but the very next day after I start up the vehicles you hear the noise plain and clear, rattling noise dealership service manager heard the noise first hand before and he knows theres a electrical short he said so himself. Tires on front and back are wearing unevenly dealership says the alignment on the vehicle is straight how is that when im going on my third set of tires now and its 2011. Dealership where purchased vehicle from says its normal to be on 3rd set of tires another dealership says its not im working with the gm company to see what the outcome will be on this vehicle.
