Welcome to the forum.
New batteries can fail, I had the new one in my Jeep replaced twice in the 12 month warranty period because of a faulty cell.

Welcome.
I agree, NEW does not always mean OK. It should, I know, but sadly not the case.
Then, if something in the car is draining that battery,, no amount of "newness" is going to fix that.
As mentioned, the Stickies at the top of the S Type section have a battery drain thread included, and the steps to find and fix that issue.
Good luck.
