Parking Brake problem

Brakes make noise and feel low, car took time to stop when braking. The dealer adjusted the brake at the first time. Second time they replaced the switch . Still having problems with that noise at the moment. On August 2000 I was driving on a highway at 55mph and all of the sudden the weatherstrip just few inside the car and it looks just li a snake and I almost crash. The car had 1729 mileage. Folowing week the rear door windshield trim came off. The passenger side window won't work because of a cut wire. Everything in this car is falling apart. I didn't expect a new car to be like that. I feel so unsafe in this car specially the smoke that coming from under my steering wheel at times. Pleas help me befoe I get killed in this unsafe car.
