Climate buttons not illuminating as expected

Not sure if this is a problem or not since I just took delivery of this 2017 FFE Platinum.  I noticed that the backlighting on the climate buttons were not illuminated when the headlights were off.  This makes it hard to see during normal daytime driving.  Strangely, they are illuminated nicely when the headlights are on as you would expect.  So, it's not like the lights are not lighting up at all.

 

Also, the dimmer works as expected with the headlights on, but when headlights are off, the dash responds to the dimmer switch, but those same climate buttons remain off regardless of the dimmer setting.

 

This seems odd because we also have a 2017 Explorer and those buttons are always well lit and respond to dimmer whether the headlights are on or off.  As a point of comparison, I'll attach a picture of the Explorer's center stack as well as the Energi's center stack - both with the headlights off and the dimmer all the way up.

 

Just wondering if anyone with a similar model can confirm this behavior as normal or not.

 

Thanks!
