Thanks for the responses. I did check for something loose because that's what it sounded like at first. When I didn't find anything I started to rule that out by trying different acceleration and deceleration combos/severities that should have made a difference in the sound if it was something loose. And then when I found it doesn't happen in sport mode I think that confirms it's not something loose in the car/spare area or even a loose bolt or something in the suspension. I don't see a jump in RPM on the tach...it seems to hold steady through the thud then drop off shortly after but maybe that is how the low gears respond on this 8 speed. Tried a few times to count the upshifts then downshifts to ensure it was still in 2nd before the thud but haven't yet found myself in an isolated enough situation to be able to get to a high enough speed and focus completely on the tach to not lose count. Will try to find a wide open space in the near future. If it is just the last downshift then maybe the adaptive transmission will work it's way out over time or can see about resetting it to let it start fresh. If I hear from a few others like cv27 that seem to indicate this is normal for this car then I'll probably be able to just tune it out over time...or spend more time in sport mode

I have a 2019 AWD Titanium (2.0EB) and I've noticed a bump or thud type noise while decelerating to a stop. You can hear and feel it almost as if you went over a small bump and I think it is coming from the rear. It is subtle and gets overshadowed if there are a few bumps near the stop but pronounced enough that I don't know that it would be intentional from Ford. At first I thought it might have been in the brakes (ABS self check?) but noticed if I roll to a stop without pressing the brakes it also happens. I turned the dash to the digital speedometer and it seems to always happen when decelerating right at 13mph with or without using the brakes. This is my first car with a >6 speed transmission so not sure if it is just the last downshift that is a little rough but don't notice a blip on the tach when it happens. I had one of the dealership mechanics take a ride with me and it wasn't as pronounced as it sometimes is during that ride and what he could hear he thought was just the AWD system de/recoupling something and was not an issue. I read the the 2019's got a new AWD feature that can decouple the rear to send 100% to the front for mpg but not sure why it would engage/disengage right before a stop. After that I noticed that if I have it in sport mode it does not do it and decels smoothly through 13mph. It doesn't seem to have any negative impacts other than being noticeable so my current thought is to just keep an eye on it and see if it changes over time before going back to the dealership. My question is if anyone with a similar Edge notices the same thing or if anyone has any better insights on what it is? Thanks!
