Temperatures are falling and that's when batteries start to fail.
I've had the same thing happen last week, after not driving the car for 3 days. Given that the car is less than 1.5 years old; I have a 2 x 30 miles daily commute (i.e., long enough to charge the battery) and I have not used any of the power outlets; it seems that the batteries in our cars fail too quickly.

This same thing happened on my 2008 X5, and the dealer ran the error codes, finding nothing! 
They just said"If it happens again, bring it in!" Well no kidding I'll bring it in!! 
Let us know how it turns out for you!!
