I understand your point and basically agree with what you explain for calibrating.
My problem is that all of my lenses equally are out of focus at the default setting and equally in better focus, but still not sharp--not even close, at the greatest micro adjustment. Since none of the lenses can come into focus on any calibration setting (positive or negative) I can conclude that the camera must be at fault. I tried every calibration setting.
As well, the battery/power issue tells me that I probably am right regarding a defective body.
Thank you again for your help.

The power issue alone would be enough for me to return the camera. Even my aftermarket batteries are good for more than 700 shots. OF course, I'm not doing any video in there or doing a lot of in camera playing around with the photos. I have the screen basically shut off (press info button until it turns off).
I don't think I saw it in any of the posts but have you tried Manual focus? Can you get a Sharp shot at ALL?
WRT to the adjustments, someone mentioned calibrating for the entire body and Then for the lens. I don't think the 2 are additive. That is, each lens has it's own calibration regardless of the body (apply all) AF calibration. So, you cannot go more than +/- 10 either way.
