2001 CHEVROLET BLAZER Complaints

Chevy Blazer has low milage. However, it still has several electrical issues radio at engine start goes to loudest point and car seats move backwards at awkward times which can cause an accident. Suspension very off guard, truck drifts to the sides while driving and makes an awkward sound when turning steering wheel. The complete break / steering system is off and may cause an accident if not properly take care right away. I have no money to do this big job. Please remediate.

TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES BETWEEN THE RADIATOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE CORRODED AND PITTED. THE LINES ARE INSTALLED OVER THE EXHAUST CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
