2012 Mazda 6 strange noise

Asked by poortiger Nov 05, 2019 at 02:36 PM about the 2012 Mazda MAZDA6

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Two things I just noticed when I turn my car off I hear a little motor running in
the engine compartment for about 20 seconds then it squeaks and shuts off.
Plus my red flashing security light on the dash continuously flashes all night
which it never did before
