Front end clunk/rattle

[22SporTsploder]

There is a service bulletin about defective front struts on certain 2023 Explorers. I replaced my front struts, rear shocks and all end links and hardware at 2000 miles on my own dime and had them installed as part of installing H&R lowering springs. That fixed the low speed clunking and its never came back in 6000 additional miles. This was before the SSM came out.

Yea I have 22 with a 01/22 build date but I will go ahead and make an appointment especially since I have an extended warranty. Thanks for posting this. Glad to know its not just me hearing the sounds.

We bought a 23 st in October it’s at 3500 miles now, in the last 1000 miles we have heard a rattle at low speeds and when you hit bumps. It’s not consistently doing it. It doesn’t sound rough or like it’s damaging anything, but it’s a bit annoying. Anyone experienced this?

I have a 24 ST just turned 3500. It has the clunking noise it sounds like the drivers side. It seems to be getting louder as the days go on. I have him scheduled to go in Wednesday at 10 for them to look at it. I guess i need to put on my boxing gloves when I get there huh? I haven't seen any 24's post with this problem, unless I'm looking in the wrong place.
