I would assume a faulty battery, if you are still under warranty I would have it checked or replaced.

I've seen a couple of dells that have battery issues after doing a BIOS update.
Firstly bear in mind that updating the BIOS is dangerous and may brick your PC if theres an issue.

First thing I would try is reflashing the latest BIOS again.
If that doesnt work try one of the older ones
