Clunking/ticking sound when breaking

Yep, I've found hybrids are pretty good at making strange noises...even when they are parked you can, sometimes, hear little motors running.
Do you know if the noises are from the front or rear? To help determine noise locations, one trick is to find a large, brick building (like behind a department store) and go around to the back.....roll down all your windows and drive close to the brick wall and listen...the sounds will amplify off the wall better.
Does it make the noise when braking or turning? What speed? It could be something simple like a tiny pebble stuck in a brake caliper or something bigger like a wheel bearing going bad.

 

While it probably is unlikely, does your car have actual hub caps snapped onto the wheels ?
Sometimes a rock behind a hubcap can do that.
And sometimes the "gripping mechanism" on the hubcap itself can pop like that.

 

I have the same car with the same issue. Did you find any solution? I may take it in to get it checked out.
