Mechanic just replaced driver front hub bearing, ball joint and tie rod. Now car makes a loud whining noise when applying brakes and turning. What was done wrong?

Vehicle should have been road tested by a reputable repair facility before releasing it to you to make sure there are no noises/problems with the repairs. Sounds like the front brake backing plate may have gotten bent and is rubbing/flexing during driving/braking. Have them recheck the repairs. If backing plate is bent, it is a minor problem with a quick fix and not a safety issue just an annoying issue

What would cause it run for a while and then stop and you have to wait for a few hours before it will start again? Is it vapor locking?

You do some testing. When the problem is ongoing, if it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If spark everywhere, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. Also, check for fuel injector pulse. If your missing all three, check for rpm signal, comes from crank sensor. Don't replace anything unless your testing points in that direction. I can't see anything from here. How long since a tune-up? Can you check applicable trouble codes? To check codes, yourself, at the least, you need an obd2 code reader. Some of the national brand auto stores will check codes for free, if there are any.

Can I replace the damaged driver front seat with the passenger front seat?

Sorry, seat frames are distinct to left and right because of things like seat adjustments being on the outside edge, and the angle of the tracks is based on what side the seat is on. So your answer unfortunately is no. If you need further help, reach me via phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/daniel_4061c3d97c12c4c7

15 amp engine control fuse keeps blowing

If the fuse keeps blowing, you more than likely have a wiring issue, possibly a ground fault. Best to take it to a mechanic to have it checked out.
