When I stop at DC fast chargers, I frequently get a warning on the top of my screen that says using PPOB can extend my charging time, but I never turned PPOB on. When I go into PPOB, I have to push the power button to turn it off. What causes PPOB to automatically turn on? Is this a glitch?

It defaults to "on." It's by design, not a glitch.
Also - unless you are using it heavily it won't really extend your charging time. Even at max use (9.6kw), that is less than a 10% extension to the usual DC fast charge time .
