My new machine also has a snapping sound when in 4 wheel drive. I have mentioned to dealer waiting to hear back from them . If I get any good info I will pass it on.

Door or dump bed rattle? The doors need to be double clicked shut, and the rubber bushings can be twisted to adjust for proper engagement. The rear door inside guards can also be adjusted to firmly contact the dump bed (seat backs) when the seats are down.

You can also adjust the dump bed latch brackets on the underside of the bed. But that's a pretty lound metallic clunking sound. I had to adjust all those things when my 2018 was new.
