Those are all correlation codes, meaning they are set when the PCM doesnt think the cams and crankshaft are timed properly.Since itis so new and low mileage, I would let the dealer handle this under warranty.Without a scanner to watch what is going on, it may be the crankshaft position sensor, but there is also a Tech Service Bulletin about camshaft end play which could affect the cam position sensors reading
