Thumbs down New 2012 GT- Front Suspension Cracking Horribly

I have a 2012 GT and when it had 500 miles I thought maybe just the suspension was settling of something of that sort.

But now when ever my front end gets a little bit of air, meaning if the road surface dips lower and the suspension expands, when it comes back down to ride height both sides give an awful cracking, literally feel a hard jolt through the entire car is if the ball joints just shattered or something.. WTF

Just wondering if anyone else has felt this and could help me give some hints to the dealer before I drop it off...

Had my lower control arms replaced per Ford's TSB because they were squeaking really bad but I drove like that for about 2 months before the fix.

How can the LCA's sound that bad? It really does feel like the motor is about to just drop out.

Only issue is its hard to replicate..
