Modern cars are far more reliable than they've ever been, but, they do still occasionally fail. Either through design or manufacturing errors.
The need for more and more technology, ever tighter emissions, and better fuel economy pushes some components to their limits, then throw in the general public, and climate. You're asking for a trouble.
I agree, you wouldn't expect a £40k cars head/gasket to fail, but have they fixed the issue? Yes? Then what's the problem, that's what the warranty is there for, and they have another 2 1/2 years of cover to continue.
If the vehicle continues to loose coolant, then they can reject it, but they'll only get the value of the vehicle less mileage allowance etc.
