Fix them yourself. Shifting issues on new bikes almost always boil down to cable tension issues. Cables stretch and need periodic adjustment. Look at Park Tools for how to do it. It's a simple job and should take less than 10 minutes. Read the whole page before you proceed. You won't need to adjust the limit screws. All you want to adjust is the cable tension.
