When I first Read your Post I was actually thinking of the FEM to be faulty.
Was surprised to see that the programming fixed it, That rarely happens for us at the dealer.
FEM modules having an internal short is very common on the new F-Chasis cars. See lots of them fail.
If you do lots of short trips(5-10kms) consistently i would recommend getting a DEFA charger installed. (basically a mini battery charger for the car) This will help keep your battery in good health when ur not driving it. Consistent short trips in our cars is very hard on the battery.
Food For Thought.
