I wish I was confusing it with the dashcam feature. All three cameras record all the time whether it is awake or asleep, even if sentry mode is off.
But you are confusing it with the dashcam feature.
Because that's the one that is "always" recording if the car is awake regardless of what Sentry mode is doing.
All Sentry mode is really doing is "saving" the last 10 minutes of buffered footage any time it alerts (plus the extra stuff it does when the alarm goes off).
If the car is asleep then it's not recording (sentry mode or not) because it can't be.
if your cameras never turn off then your car is never going to sleep and you might want to talk to the service center about that because it's not how it's supposed to work.
