2017 Mustang Crunching Suspension Noises

Hey y'all! New-ish to the group. I currently have a 2017 Eco-Boost Premium
Im not super familiar with cars and the mechanics so I apologize ahead of time.
Ive recently been hearing some strange crunching noises while Im driving and was wondering if anyone had any ideas of what it could be. Any ideas fo what this can be? Usually happends at lowers speeds

Is it when you go over a bump or just when its driving. Or does it happen when you hit the gas. These all could be different issues or combined.

Just when driving. I wish I could send videos in here, I got a perfect video of what it sounds like.

The easiest thing you're gonna need to do is put the car up, either on jackstands, or better would be either a four post lift or an alignment rack.

However you get it up in the air, it'll let you visually inspect for things. Things such as underbelly pans/shields which are used to deflect air and protect parts. There's fender well panels too, and the lip on the front of the radiator shield panel that can come loose on your car... all kinds of things. Just look for 'that doesn't look right', then do some googlin' maybe, or send a pic/video.

Other items could be brakes, suspension parts, and then... well, you're probably getting into proper diagnostics from a mechanic, if you're not able to figure it out. Maybe talking transmission or turbo or engine or exhaust or...

For a video, make a youtube channel, upload it, and link it here. Pics, use Imgur and link that. There are ways, is all I'm sayin'.

Where do you hear the sounds? Might be important.

yeah, could be a lot of things, like a little rock stuck in a bad place, who knows

while your under there, lubricate all of the moving joints and maybe that will help
