Default "Battery Low, Please Start Engine"

I got this warning message about a week after getting the car. Took it the dealer and they replaced the battery. The service invoice says "19144 unable to verify concern, referred to sdd for any dtc's on vehicle referring to concern. no codes at this time. followed and performed service vbulletin JTB00446NAS3, passed all tests all charging systems are performing as designed at this time."

Well, I went for a drive the day before last. Then today, I get the same warning. I did not sit in the car or listen to the radio during that time. I started the car and let it idle for about 5 minutes and the warning went away.

Did anyone experience this? Is this normal? What was done?

oh, and I put the headlights on "off" and not "auto."

I'd appreciate any input.

I got this on my'14 V6S once and it went away after I drove it. My start-stop wasn't working, know this is preferable to some, so I took it in for service and they replaced the start stop battery and then the regular battery, not sure why.

Disconnect the battery for 15 seconds. That will reboot the battery management module. That seems to go wonky every time they plug into the OBDII port.
