Yes, this is correct response. This applies to both, bugs and feature deadlines. Early in my career, I would freak out whenever there were hard deadline, spent hours of personal time trying to meet deadlines. Now that I have friends in management and higher, I understand their motivations. They don't care about deadlines.

The best approach is to show concern, managers love meetings, so schedule a meeting to discuss. Don't fight back on deadline but try to understand seriousness and inform them of your status. Really it maybe waste of your valuable time, but your manager needs to report to their manager. They will love you for scheduling a meeting, you are speaking their language. Give them daily or weekly update via email or Slack. That shows them you are serious about deadline. They really just need to stay informed.

Finally, don't waste your personal time on fixing the bug after work. After 5PM spend time with your family and friends. Don't let management fool you in thinking that this is the last hard deadline. They will abuse you if you let them. It is just simple human nature. Don't let them abuse your coworkers either. It takes just one overzealous employee to destroy work-life balance for everyone.

Ever since I have realized that deadlines are mostly meaningless, I have missed many and there were zero negative consequences. In fact, opposite happens most of the time, management stop setting ridiculous deadlines. You just need to make sure you are doing solid work everyday for 8 hours and that's it.
