However, I'd heard of some getting a confirmed renewal only less than 2 weeks before expiry.

So yes, best to start finding elsewhere if no news.

Technically, it is not auto sayonara, but at the period when the contract lapses and absolutely zero action is taken (as opposed to a proper expiry whereby HR wudve kickstarted offboarding), technically, either side can suddenly say "k thnx bai" without notice or anything. Of course, so far, nothing of that has actually happened.
