    My 2010 prius recently started making this noise when I brake and am at a full stop (will even do it when car is shut off). Mechanics I know have no clue what the issue could be? Any ideas?

    sounds like the brake actuator. should be okay until the dash lights up, then you'll need to replace it. expensive, best to find a salvage unit.
