This might sounds a little bit complicated but I think the best way to go
Go online and find out the broken bolt major and minor diameter, and find the next size up
drill your old threads out and tap the hole and use a new bolt that is 3” long
This bigger new bolt will handle more stress than the original bolt

Thank You Eric!
I checked out you Suspension Noises article
The brake shims are in place and my car sound different than brake pads movement.
It sound more like: what my first thought was that the spear tire is loose
and when i go over a bump it jumps, but I tighten the spare tire and i moved on
to the suspension but somehow I have to find this noise out of the 6 rods 1 ball joint or
now i have to check the struts and shocks too.

All right here is what happened
I replaced a caliper and everything is fine
I even got my MPG back and to answer some earlier question
I use 3m silicon paste on the pins, and the rotor is
in almost new condition, no problems with the brake lines
so everything good now
Thanks

Hey Chevypower the lubricant on the pins 3m silicon paste and just a hair anti seize on the contact points of the pads where seats on the bracket the friction material were worn even
Anyway I replaced the caliper and it seems like the problem is gone
I will confirm in about 2 weeks if my MPG increase

Thank you Eric!

If I replace one side do I have to replace both rear calipers ?

If you have a drill you might be able to drill out the bolt and replace it
