My car hoots when I turn it off

[RHawkins]

When I turn off the engine it begins to makes a hooting sound for a while. I thought it was some sort of fan. The dealership replaced the headlights? I don’t know how it’s related at all. It’s 1.5 hrs one way, I’ll pick it up tomorrow. Just reluctant that that’s the issue. Anyone else?

We have a 2024 Turbo and never heard that sound. Does sound like some sort of pump. Not sure how the headlights would be involved although LED headlights have a cooling fan that can run when the car is off. And there is a Mazda TSB about abnormal headlight noise:

Please update us when you pick up the car!

There was an issue with headlight motors. Let us know if that fixed it.

It’s part of the emissions control system.

Give a hoot… don’t pollute!

If you grew up in the 80s, this would be hilarious.

Agreed with N7turbo, it sounds like the headlight assembly. Same thing happened with my '22 (non-turbo) late last year. The noise is present only when the headlights are on, regardless of the engine running or not.
