Headlights always on

On these 2017's when you have the headlight switch on auto do the headlights stay on all the time, even in bright sunlight.

They will if something is blocking the light sensor on the dash. Is something covering up the sensor?

Do you have LED's or Halogens? The halogens will stay in DRL mode when in auto which will appear that they are on but not full power until the sensor turns them on. If they are on you will also see the headlight symbol in your Instrument cluster and your screens will turn from light to dark if you have that option selected in sync.
