Power Running Boards do not close consistently

Mine consistently do this when set to auto in the settings:
Immediately deploy and stay deployed when a door is open on that side.
Retract 5 seconds after both doors are closed on that side.
I think that is correct behavior. Haven't tested any other scenario really.

Via the Deploy Steps button on the Controls screen (same place as seat heat/fan).
Thanks, found it. Amazing how many features these trucks have and some yet to be discovered apparently. I've looked at that screen so many times and just never saw it under the mirror dim icon.

Mine also will at times be delayed in retracting after driving away. Maybe one in 50 times.

I use the step deploy button whenever I park in public parking places as a potential means to prevent door dings. When I put the truck in gear to leave the steps immediately retract as expected - 100% of the time.
