To think this car has been tampered with

Someone from DS14’s school has been a nuisance, knocking on our door and running off, waiting outside our house shouting his name, and although the police gave him a warning which stopped it for a while, our recently acquired car has now unexpectedly broken down for no reason, with the heater taking a long time to come on despite us buying a new battery and the car being built like a tank that we only bought seven months ago, and while it had been fine for months, I saw him walking past and although he is obviously denying it, I refuse to believe the car has just broken down on its own and suspect he may have tampered with it. I told him that I'll call the police and he started getting scared which is another red flag.

You should have called the police before you said anything to him. Now he can destroy or hide any evidence if it was him.

It might just be your thermostat is going. Or your blower fan motor.

These aren't things you can just walk by a car and access.
