Overhead light staying on

So today, the driver and passenger interior overhead lights stayed on even after the car was driven off the lot. This is the second time it's happened in less than 2 months.
One time is a fluke but now I'm beginning to wonder if there may be a flaw in the programming.

Anyone else experience this? I have a MY23 GLS450.

Check the buttons up by the sunroof button. Easy to brush against by accident if going for the sunroof / shade slide switch. Did that a couple of times myself.

Also, watch the head light knob when getting in/out. Very easy for the knee to rotate the light to “on” from the “auto” position. That too has happened to us, mostly my wife as she has her seat setting closer to the steering wheel than me.

I checked the knob and it was still in auto. I rarely use the sunroof so it wasn't that either!
