Why does the Chery QQ3 make clunking noises when driving over bumpy roads?

[MasonRose]

When a car makes clunking noises while driving over bumpy roads, it could be due to wear in the bottom pressure bearings, deformation or gaps in the rubber mounts, or looseness and wear in the steering ball joints or lower arm ball joints. Issues with the rubber bushings at the front suspension connections: Since the suspension undergoes a lot of movement on bumpy roads, various noises may overlap, so it's generally necessary to identify the type of sound or conduct an actual test drive to determine the cause. If you can feel a low-pitched metallic impact noise, similar to metal parts interfering with each other, the most likely culprits are problems with the rubber bushings or top mounts at the front suspension connections. Top mounts can help extend the lifespan of shock absorbers: Top mounts, also known as shock absorber upper seats, are specifically designed to connect the car's shock absorbers to the body. They not only effectively cushion impacts on the body but also enhance the lifespan of the shock absorbers. Typically, a top mount consists of a piece of metal or rubber, along with bearings, washers, and sleeves.
