Default "Charge System Fault" on DIC ???

I have a 2001 coupe with a little over 10K miles. Once in a while when starting I get a message on the DIC that says something like "Charging System Fault". It goes away immediately and I have no other indications of anything - all gauges and performance are fine. It has happened probably 3 or 4 times in a year. I haven't checked to see if a code has been set. Anyone else ever see this message??? Anyone have an idea of what the system detects, or what might cause this message?? Thanks for any input.

I had it happen once after it seemed like it took a little longer to crank over than usual at around 1800 miles. Never happened again after that at almost 3000 miles now.
