Groaning noise after shut off

I just heard a weird groaning noise coming from the car after I parked it. It sounded like it was coming from the rear wheels. Sounded kind of like a 400 lb guy was just getting into my back seat and the springs were creaking and groaning. Any thoughts on what this is?!

Can you post a recording of it? I have found that this car makes all kinds of noises, most of which are perfectly normal. Mine makes some sounds after I shut down.

Your car is haunted. You need to take it to an exorcist.

Do you park on a slight incline? If so, it’s most likely the rear brakes biting the discs as it rolls a bit. Maybe try putting the ebrake on a little tighter and see if the sound goes away.

Peking brake makes a groaning sound. Happens to me when I get out of the car. Doesn't always happen but when I'm in the garage it makes the sound more pronounced

Coil springs or parking brake are the first things that come to mind.
