    I’ve searched and read a few threads on this but all seem to be related to 2nd Gens. My 2018 has a rear end clunk noise just after coming to a stop (50% of the time). Anyone else have a similair issue? Fixes? Thanks.

    Is the clunk after you release the brakes and go to start from a dead stop? If so I would try turning off your hill start assist (I think all of the sports have this feature). I had a clunk in my Ram 2500 that would happen every time I would pull away from a stop and when I disabled that feature the clunk went away. Another option would be to check the torque on your U-Bolts.

    Take it to the dealer and do a ride around with the tech.
