Replaced the sway bar end links with Moogs. Didn't fix the clunking, but it definitely handles better now on turns. My husband now thinks it is the strut mounts. When turning the wheel each direction we can see that the strut spring is getting bound up at a certain point and when it lets loose that is when it clunks. Local shop, as well as several google searches, confirmed it is the strut mounts. We purchased new mounts and went ahead and got new struts to replace at the same time. Will report back with the results after we install them (planning to do that next weekend).

We'll definitely check that out. Thank you!!

I'm curious if you ever got a resolution to this issue? I have a 2013 Ford Edge Sport AWD with approx 78,000 miles that has had a front end clunk since the day I drove it off the lot. It only does it when I make tight turns at low speeds. It doesn't make the noise while I'm turning, but instead makes it when I straighten the wheel back up after I've made a tight turn. All front end parts seem to be fine, including the brakes, although I don't understand why Ford didn't install zerks on the Edges so that we can grease the front end parts; it seems to me like that probably has a lot to do with it. When we put it up on jack stands we cannot replicate the noise, put it back on the ground it makes the noise every time, so it appears to only make the noise when there is a load on the suspension. I've seen a lot of people complain about this issue on Edges and have stated that Ford does not have a fix for it. It is out of warranty (my ESP expired at 75,000), and I don't want to spend a bunch of money throwing unnecessary parts at it that aren't going to fix it. It drives fine, the noise is just annoying. I'm curious if anyone has figured out what is causing it.
