2016 Patriot 2.4 High Altitude

next door just bought used (47k) jeep and it is draining battery overnight.. checked fuses, fuse relays, 7 of the like 21? grounding straps for them; and finally told them to take it back (under colorado lemon law) and get another, or at least a pro-rata fix with it being under even manufacturer miles/yr warranty.. Phil Long Ford in colorado springs wants nothing to do with it..

Question: on this mk/mdl, with plain jane radio (am/fm/cd), NO infotainment/navigation; does the clock display stay on at all times, after vehicle is off? dome lights go out 30sec. after ingition off, door closed; but clock on radio always on?? i didn't know if this was part of Jeep's anti-theft? GM just has pulsing red led.. this is the onlt thing i can find with a parasitic draw..

any assistant/answer(s) greatly appreciated.. thanks..
