Clunking

2020 gle
have a clunking sound at low speeds when going over minor bumps . Sometimes you can fill it under the passenger back floorboard . As you reach highway speeds it goes away . Any ideas ?

I believe the best advice you can get is to bring it into dealership. No sense wasting time getting opinions when you can get it repaired; hopefully under warranty.

I agree with Tony. No one here will know for sure. Could be something loose, bad bushing, alignment issue, shock absorber, spring, etc, etc, etc. Best bet is to bring it in for an inspection.
Blessed day.

Hopefully OP updates us on what it was for curiosity's sake, hopefully it is something simple and not widespread.
