All these items are supposed on the Accessories position on the ignition switch. It seems that the Accessories wire on the ignition switch is shorting with the positive wire coming from the battery. Unless the ignition switch itself is bad. Please have it checked and rectified.

Open the door , this is a comfort feature with a time delay that will allow you to listen to the radio and roll windows up and down for a set period of time after the keys have been removed usually up to 2 minutes

ALSO LEARN HOW RAP WORKS./
RAP IS this thing that allows things to work key off and a delay.
20 MIN RULE (

Retained Accessory Power (RAP) Circuit Description The retained accessory power (RAP) is a subsystem of the body control module (BCM). The RAP is designed to provide power to the following accessories when the ignition is in the run or accessory position, and up to 20 minutes when the ignition switch is in the off position.
  1. The power windows
  2. The radio
  3. The sunroof
  4. The overhead console
SO IS A RAP ISSUE CLEARLY.

USA ANSWERS ME ONLY UNLESS POSTER TELLS THE TRUTH AND NONE EVER DO.
EXPORT CARS ARE NOT THE SAME.
YES RAP CAN FAIL (KEY OFF FAILS) SURE BUT IS A WHOLE OTHER BALL OF WAX ,TESTING..

First of all it sounds like your ign lock is sticking,when you take the key out of the lock turn the steering wheel to get the lock to click on,if that works,get some spray grease,not wd40,and spray into the barrel,thenn work the key in and out.That should also solve the problem resetting your key.

Sounds like a faulty ignition switch. Especially if any other accessories stay on as well with key off.

Why won't the radio turn off after the 10 min. time limit after turning the ign. switch off?

It is supposed to stay on until you open the drivers side door. Your retained power accessory module keeps it on or shuts it off after ten min
