Default Soft front end clunk/thump when going over small bumps...

Hey everyone! I'm new to this forum. I bought a new 2016 V6 Mustang from Ford (traded in a 2014) last month and for the the past 2 weeks I've noticed a very soft thump or clunking noise coming from the front end when going over small bumps. It's hard to describe the sound but it's actually more of a feeling than anything. It feels like a dull knock coming right under my feet. The weird thing is that it goes away after a few minutes a driving but as soon as I let the car sit for more than 30 min or so, it'll do it again. The only thing I've tried doing it tightening the tires but that didn't seem to help. The car only has 800 miles so I can take it to the dealer to have a checked out but it's pretty far from me and wanted to know if this is something I should worry about. Thanks!

Mine was doing that and it turned out that plastic piece under the front bumper that shields the wind had a missing bolt.

When I had the oil changed I'll bet they lost one of the bolts and never told me.
