Advice needed: Facing multiple issues with my 2017 Volkswagen Tiguan

I am facing an onslaught of emerging problems on my Tiguan TDI 2017. It has barely done 25000km and has already developed many issues.

Dear everyone,

I am facing an onslaught of emerging problems on my Tiguan TDI 2017. It has barely done 25000km and has already developed many issues.

1. Battery has to be replaced twice.

2. Due to jump starting of car due to faulty battery the front collision sensor has become spoilt and hence the airbag error sign shows up whenever the car is started.

3. The electronic parking brake keeps showing parking brake failure randomly while driving and is becoming more frequent. This issue though goes away on restarting.

4. The roof lining is starting to sag badly.

I am very worried that the wires have maybe corroded or gotten spoilt due to constant jump starting of car over 2 day period when Battery had failed in in a remote hillstation.

What should I do? I usually use a good FNG run by a family friend to service my cars.

VW Sewri has very bad service whenever I used it and they charge a bomb which I cannot afford right now. What should I do. Do I send it to them just to get an estimate? And then do the job at the FNG.

Will they be able to study all the wirings to see if any more wires are potentially damaged.

I love my car but I really am getting tired of the constant issues my car faces.
