2012 Dodge Avenger parking lights

Last few days after shutting off the car the parking lights are staying on. (I can't get them to turn off.) My husband turns the car on and off a few times and eventually they shut off. (The alarm system in the car rings when we turn the car off to indicate they are on which is good but I found nothing in owner's manual to tell me anything under trouble shooting. No point in calling dealership, they would want to see the car. Which I understand if it is a major problem. But if it's something minor that I can fix, I would appreciate it as I have been out of work for a year.) Thank you so much!
