Take it to the dealership?
Might be something in the HVAC system if you're hearing it when not driving but regardless, it's under warranty, let them have a look.

I’m convinced I have this issue on my 2022 GLC. I’ve had it at the dealer so many times over the 11 months of ownership but they keep wanting to pull the dash instead of looking at this. Can someone provide the bulletin or any additional (specific) instructions? I’m thinking about checking it myself. The car came with no windshield fluid so who knows what else may have been missed!
I’m attaching a video if anyone can confirm a similar noise:

Find another dealer, one who knows what they are doing (which is a challenge on its own, as I don’t think any of them do anymore, or simply do not care).
I am glad I have no more cars in warranty, as my Indy is knowledgeable, trustworthy and honest. The dealer sees me if I HAVE TO go there for a recall to be addressed, otherwise I stay away as far as I can!!!!!
