2000 Monte SS problems - Help Please
Hi, I recently purchased this awesome car about 6 months ago and it is used, but it is all mine. It has some issues, and was wondering if anyone could help me out with some of the problems. I have just had news tires and an alignment done, with new rear struts put on and an outer tie rod end and sway bar link
1. While getting onto the interstate, I have a rubbing feeling coming from what feels like the front end. (this is when I feel it the most) other times I feel it slightly when turning right.
2. It has started perfect up until the colder weather has hit. It sometimes starts right up and other times starts and dies and the low fuel light comes on. I know the gas is full because my fuel sensor is bad, so I use the "gallons used" digital reading and just don't let it go below 10 gallons. I replaced the fuel filter, and it still had the issue for a da or two, then ran fine for a week. Now having the same issue. (usually does it when it's cold out, but not all the time.)
3. It has bright lights, but only if I manually hold the switch. It won't stay on.
4. My key fob works only one time. If I lock the car, then go to unlock the trunk, it unlockes the trunk, but won't let me unlock the doors and vice versa.
If anyone could help me out with some of these issues, I would appreciate it.

Above is everything I have had done to it since I purchased it, besides 3 oil changes as needed. It has around 150,000 miles on it, and there were no service records available and I don't know about previous owners. It looks as though it was maintained very nicely.
