Sorry to say you are in trouble. With that attitude the warranty company is looking to wash their hands rather than find a fix. If you pay the labour will they pay for the bits?
Can you hand it back and get a refund? If so that would be my course of action.
If you cannot it's going to be expencive for you, either in funding the investigations and fix or getting rid of it as the word is now out and folk know it's a problem car.

Even as a diy fix the parts are going to mount up and the only way to be sure it's not the part is to use genuine.
