I would move on quickly. You can get a brand new bike with all the same common problems from Wally-mart and similar places for the price you will pay to get this one fixed. You could also save up money and get a bike that is more practical for commuting.
If that many things are damaged and need replacement on a few month old bike that is a bad sign and will just lead to pumping a ton of money into something worth $10 new (I didn't say cost but value)
Mongoose is really no longer the same Mongoose that made the cool IBOC frames and fun old BMX stuff.
