Default Radio will not shut off. HELP

WEIRD... We are in the middle of a -20 degree storm here. Temps as low as -30 tomorrow with some high winds... But my stereo will not shut off....!! I turn the key off and pull it, open the door and the speakers shut off and dash lights, but the display on my stereo will not turn off. I have a Pioneer unit but have never had this issue. The dome lights know when the door is open so can it be a frozen latch???? I am so confused.. HELP !!!
