Had this odd rear end clicking noise when I took delivery of my 2021 HC. Kind of in between a baseball card clothes pinned to a bike wheel to a flat tire sound. Service looked at it, and said the rear inner fenders were hitting the wheel. Made somewhat of sense to me. Parts ordered, came in, finally able to make appointment after the NJ floods receded. Parts replaced, and got it home, seemed ok. Had it garaged with all the washed out roads and debris still all over the place since picking it up. Took it to work today, started noticing it again.

It doesn't seem like the brake rotor click. It goes from clicking when moving to a thumping when slowing down/turning....

Of course, going to call back. Any thoughts or experiences with this one?

Couple of boxes you need to check cause of other 2021 owners with similar clicking sounds.

  • Torque all lug nuts to 111 Ft Lbs
  • Torque all Front Rotor Ring Nuts to 78 In.Lbs.
  • Do some slow Figure 8s with all windows down in a parking lot or similar to see if it the rear end LSD making the noise. Might take someone with you and have them outside while you do the 8s around them to dial in on the noise.

Hi hellinnj,
Sorry to hear you are experiencing this, we certainly understand why this would be concerning. If you end up addressing this with your local Dodge dealer again, please let us know via PM. We'd be more than happy to provide you with an additional layer of assistance for that process.

Know this is an old thread, but I too just started experiencing a odd sound coming from the left rear., Right side does not do this, its only on the left and did not start until I was 5 minutes from the house coming to a stop, and then at acceleration and backing into the garage. I'm not idiot when it comes to mechanics of these cars, but this one has me stumped. . Clicky Clicky
