Is this a normal sound?

    Hi Everyone! I am a new prius owner; picked up my 2024 prius limited last month. I started noticing that after I turn off the car there is this whistling type of noise for a few seconds, sort of like high pitch chirping. I checked a few posts and the owner's manual, but this sound doesn't quite match.

    Is this something all Pruis's do, or should I get this checked by the dealership?

    it's definitely not something all prius do, but i suppose gen 5 could be different.
