Clunking sound on Gen 3 too

[Bmwtech113]

Excellent thanks for posting didn’t know what everyone was talking about until now.. 6k miles in and I feel something slight in the floorboard but not a clunk noise like that

The clunk isn’t as loud as the chassis ears make it seem to be, but the feel in the floorboard matches perfectly with the noise in the video.

Here is a shorter but better video of the clunk.

Here is a video I took with a set of chassis ears connected to the left front coil spring.

That's it!! Someone get this to Ford. Although I'm sure they'll say it's "completely normal".

I drove with the service manager on that exact same route a couple of weeks ago. His response was that they all feel that way but he would reach out to the field rep and get back with me. I’m still waiting for a call back. I called Ford and they want me to try another dealer.

the feeling in the floorboard is definitely the clunk, you may just not be able to hear it. mine continues to get worse. called my dealer today and 2 of the 4 shocks theyve ordered have come in. hopefully the replacements at least buy me some clunk free time before the tsb (fingers crossed we get one)

That's exactly what my truck does over the same type of bumps. Glad you were able to get that footage with your setup.

Wow that’s loud mine isn’t that bad

well the speaker is on the dash, collecting the sound from under the truck. I.E. chassis ears. Thats just a magnification. Does anyone have clunking actually that loud in the truck without magnification. it could be a little misleading how loud it actually is in the truck. Non the less it shouldn't be like that and needs to be fixed. Hopefully it gets remedied quick. I may have to buy a set of chassis ears myself to see if its that bad as well.

I believe all of us on this thread are experiencing the same problem, the ears are magnifying it but that's a good thing. Finally we have some to show the dealer. Plus the pedal feel. NOT NORMAL AT ALL
