Has anyone determined if any of the USB ports are "always on" (even when the vehicle is turned off)?

Leave a discharged phone 9
on a charger, go have dinner, come back and find out

Previous generations, Ford/Lincoln lighter-power sockets were always-hot


PS some other vehicles cut out in 30-45 minutes, so maybe best test overnight if you really need to know

The “main one” in the dash turns off after 30 minutes. I know this because I always get an extra 30 minutes of video on my dash cam after I shut off the ignition.
