bad ignition switch?

Truck is a 2013 F250 with the 6.2. Tonight I noticed that when the key was in the ignition but in the off position that if I jiggled the key or pushed it inwards the courtesy lights(gage lights and dome light)would go on/off. If the ignition is turned to any other position it would not do this. Is the ignition bad and if so how big of a repair is it on these new trucks? I only have two weeks of warranty left so I have to act quick?

ETA. I tried the other key and it does it with that one too. I also checked my wife's truck and hers does not do this.

Don't know, but I think I would run into the dealership real quick and say something about it. Get it documented before the warranty runs out even if they can't fix it right away.
