Try swapping out the battery. Your battery is still under warranty. A lot of places are lenient on battery replacement. Just tell them your mechanic suspect it's the battery and you want an exchange.

This may not be the best route but its the most efficient route in my opinion. When you have electrical issues, the first thing is to positively ensure it isn't a battery issue because most cases it is. It's also the easiest and cheapest route to go before you really have to deep dive with diagnosing issues.

Swap battery with the same OEM spec, registered it, and see if it goes away.
