Nope.

I think the OP has a legitimate concern as on my off-road, when I leave the tailgate down, the Speedo cluster stays illuminated with the tailgate shown in red as it’s open. Same thing goes for the hood. Not sure how long it’ll stay on but mine was on for over an hour before I was done with my repair.
