I went to GM to have my recall fixed and they denied me service as they said they didn-??t have the tool and it looked okay visually and to not worry about it. My ball joint is now separated from the control arm and I cannot drive the car

When I turn left, the right side makes a popping noise around the ball joint. Reservoir coolant tank leaks, and no tempature guage.. there is no way to tell if my car over heats until the light comes on and I have to pull over then? I have never seen a vehicle not have a tempature guage!! also my passenger seat belt will not stay fastened!

When I am driving there is a loud knocking sound always. It happens while driving at any speed, turn, and parking. When I hit about 40 mph, the vehicle steering wheel starts shaking and it is difficult to control vehicle. I can feel the knock underneath my feet while driving. In regards to the electrical system the radio freezes frequently and rear view parking camera has malfunction. In regards to the windshield wiping systems it just stopped working. Fluid does not come out at all making it very difficult to see the in various conditions. I have to pull over wherever I may be, use a water bottle to throw water on window to see then turn the wipers on. I even have to do it while driving especially on the expressway in rainy/dusty/muddy conditions. My family and I are worried and definitely not happy about these conditions. Kingdom Chevrolet sold us a faulty vehicle and now claim that we have to pay $135 for each and every issue which is insane for a diagnostic.
