2023 OBW - Two issues after only three weeks

So my 2023 OBW is currently sitting at my local dealer. Yesterday when I went to lunch it didn’t seem like it wanted to start. Then all of the nannies showed disabled and the check engine light was on. Got it started and all lights were still lit up. Went to my local dealer and out of the blue everything reset. But they still wanted to run a diagnostic on it. In which they found an issue with the throttle body. They recommend not driving it and put my in a loaner.

Prior to this I had it at my purchasing dealer because my battery had gone dead for an unknown reason and I was also having issues with my back up sensors. During that visit they determined I needed a whole new control panel because mine was laggy and not very responsive.

This is my first Subaru and honestly I’m wondering if I threw myself out of the frying pan and into the fire. I got rid of my 2022 Bronco because of several mechanical and electrical issues. I know every manufactured product can have issues. But should I be worried about what’s to come??

EDIT: Here is the repair order if anyone is interested what the issue was and what they did.
