2012 VW Touareg V6 TDI Problems

So, two weeks ago we bought a brand new 2012 vw Touareg TDI out of the showroom. The third day we drove it to the grocery store. As we were leaving the parking lot, the system notification light came on. It stated that the adBlue could only go 700 more miles before running dry. Two days later it wasnt there. This week we just recieved a letter in the mail saying that we could make our appontment for a inspection to see how everything with this NEW car with only 846 miles on it was going. So I called the dealer where I bought it from which is two hours from here up. He said the car should not be doing that and not have to come in till 90 day or 5,000 miles. He told us to bring it in anyways. Took the touareg to the dealerthe next day. Tech looked at it and said that there was something wrong with the adBlue system and that it was heating or cooling that diesel or adBlue. I have no idea what he said. He just gave me a loaner car and told me he will call me when he figures it out. Ok... So he just called me and said that the on board computer was alll messed up too. He had to order a ton of new parts. He has no idea when they will come in. In the mean time, i am driving this little plain jain golf. So I told the dealer on the phone that I am going to need a bigger car than a golf if you are keeping my car. He cant even give me a passat cc or even a jetta for crying out loud. I am so mad. I am about to tell them to keep the car and take there loaner and that they should give me a brand new touareg that i custom order.
