Your 4Runner's FOX shocks are making a clunking sound at low speeds. Toyota has replaced three shocks under warranty, though they charged you labor on the third replacement. The clunking noise has returned, suggesting this may be a recurring issue with these shocks on TRD Pro models. A repair or replacement of the faulty shock absorbers will likely be needed to resolve the noise.

You received a recall notice for your 2021 Toyota 4Runner's suspension (Campaign 23E051000), but Toyota hasn't yet made the replacement parts available. You haven't experienced any actual suspension failure, but the delay in getting parts has exceeded what you consider a reasonable timeframe. The repair will likely involve replacing the affected suspension component once Toyota makes the parts available.

Steering wheel shimmy and shake from around 55-63mph. Intermittently happens but is very well documented across forums. This affects 4runners that are brand new, and there is no clear answer to a fix.
