In warranty or out there is only one way to find out - see a dealer and have them tell you where the issue is.

I had a battery symbol a couple years ago in the cold. I can't remember exactly but I think it was the white symbol, not the red symbol. My issue was the auxiliary battery was bad and they replaced under warranty.

The auxiliary battery allows the car to be put in and out of Park when the main battery is dead.

Auxiliary battery is going bad. Cold weather pronounces the fault more. I think its under the front passenger seat near the main battery.
The light will go away temporarily as you drive and the system recharges, and return when the truck sits for a while in the cold.
Best to change it.

the one below the passenger seat is Main battery. Aux battery is somewhere behind the dash.

Are you sure? I replaced my auxillary battery myself in my 07 GL450 and it was located underneath the seat, to the side of the main battery.
