Which tire brand do you have and are they the factory size that’s specified on the door decal? Also, have any suspension modifications been made such as a lift?

And this just started all of a sudden? It sounds less like a wheel or tire problem if the frequency of bumpiness is constant regardless of tire speed.
yes all of a sudden, just as i was exiting the highway..

BF Goodrich Mud-Terrain. And yes, factory size. No mods whatsoever, it's stock

Just Curious, DXB or AUH? lived in the UAE for most of my life.Those MTs aren't gonna last long in the dreaded summer heat.You can start by seeing if you have a friend who has one who can test it with you and see if they notice .Also should be no problem if you take it to the dealers (trading Ent? )
They will make sure you are all set , knowing first hand how customer service is over there ,top notch and there's no messing around.

I would start by checking you wheels lug nuts. It also could be a defective tire.

You could have picked up a nail or road debris. Sometimes if you pick up a nail you can actually hear it "clack, clack, clack" on the road.

Is it possible your alignment got thrown off? Tires are probably too new to detect a wear issue, but you might want to have the alignment checked before they start wearing irregularly. If you don’t find a smoking gun, that would be my next step.

Definitely not normal, take it to the dealer.

Since the bump does not vary with vehicle speed we can rule out tires and driveshafts. My guess is a loose shock absorber.
