I have a 1996 Aurora and it does the same thing. I think this is a "nicety" and stays on so you can gather your stuff and still listen to the radio until you open the door. Then it shuts off. Being a GM product as well, it wouldn't surprise me if it was the same thing going on. Functioning as designed.
