My car is a mess need some help

Ok so I recently brought my car in for some fixing. I have an extended warrenty for my car, but they won't do anything because nothing has completely failed. Here is a list of what they told me is wrong with my car...

-Valve cover gasket is (seeping). It's leaking all over my garage.
-My passenger side door break? Is going bad. I have no idea.
-My drivers side window motor is going bad.
-I have this rattle(seems to be coming from the passenger side by the A pilar.
-And now after they looked at it I have this squeeking noise everytime I turn left or tap the breaks. And they replaced the P.S. Pump about 6 months ago.

Now the warrenty company said they would replace everything that is wrong with my car if it completely failed, but since It hasn't completely failed there is nothing they can do about it.

Please help. Suggestions, help on what some of the problems are.


Thanks guys!
Steve

I think your warranty company will only agree to replacing the valve cover gasket as it's obviously compromised and leaking oil. You might have some luck with the door if it's a safety issue. The other items will have to wait.
