Hi:

They say that the 'loudest noise in the world is the first noise in your new truck.' I just got my new 2010 Sport 1500 and it goes clunk when going over sharp bumps. It has got to be a good rap to make the noise. Any ideas out there?

Eckhard.

 

I had a 06 that had a thump noise when I went over a bump when it was new ended up being a bad shock.

 

Any idea where the noise is coming from? I remember someone complaining about those huge weights on the frame being loose and clunking.

 

It comes from the back end. It could be a shock as one of the shock covers is rubbing on the shock body indicating a bent shock. I have an appointment this pm to check it out.

 

Mine was the reciever ball hitch being loose , it is the only sound mine makes.

 

Just by chance do you have running boards. One of mine was loose made a clunking noise. Dealer could not fix it and they installed them...they actually put that on the paperwork. So me in my wheel chair(this is the millionth time I told this)and my brother inlaw fixed it. We just loosened it I pushed down on the board he forced some rubber pieces in between the frame and the running board frame tightened bolts. FIXED

 

there is some weird noise that come from the rear/bed of this truck. havent pin pointed it yet but i know there some coming from back there.

 

It was the running boards. I had them taken off. I am going to buy some Dodge ones and probably install them myself.

 

i have a decent klunking noise comin from my back end .. getting louder .. mainly when the truck articulates .. for example going over a speedbump diagonally ... or taking a turn fast then whipping the wheel back .. like something shifts to one side, than back ...

somethin has to be loose ... i smell a recall or at least rapid response down the road .. anyone reading this . mark my words ..

 

Mine does the same thing.
