No, take it back, if you can in a face to face with the retailer. Might not be possible right now so perhaps a video call where someone can sort out your problem. May just be something you're doing wrong.

There is a bit of a see-saw sensation as the wheelbase varies with suspension compression. Is that it, or is the headset loose and knocking when you brake? It needs 36mm spanners to adjust, which are expensive. No threadless stuff kn a Brompton.
