That is not normal. The Bulb mode on the srt is the same as on any other camera: the shutter stays open as long as you keep the button pressed.
If Bulb is giving up on your camera, it's also possible 1/2 and 1 sec are super not accurate, and the self time should have issues too.
if that is not the case, maybe the selector mechanism got loose and can't select the speeds properly, that would put the B mode to 1/1000.

It's just some glass, some silicon and magnesium. It isn't a religion.
