WHILE DRIVING FOR BUSINESS, I USE THE NAVIGATION AND INFO COMPONENT VERY OFTEN. I USE THE WEATHER AND TRAFFIC CONSTANTLY AS IT HELPS ME TO AVOID DANGEROUS WEATHER AND TRAFFIC JAMS.

Therefore, the actuator will buzz every few seconds trying to keep pressure in the braking system to a safe operating level of gas pressure to no avail due to this leak in the actuator. After it quits buzzing from shutting the car off, you can hear the air leak hissing the pressure away. There are tons and tons of articles on this issue online as this is a major safety concern
