"clunk" in the steering?

I was looking through some things in my car and happened to turn the steering wheel when everything was turned off.
I noticed a "thunk/clunk" sound. Tried moving the steering wheel back and forth and sure enough it clunks somewhere between the right front wheel and the center of the dash.

Can someone else try this on their car to see if this is normal?
Typically this would NOT be normal, but given this new electric assist rack, it may be normal when the car is shut off.

BTW, I don't have a any steering wheel vibration at any speed.
But, I did notice a couple of loud bang sounds over certain big bumps.
Maybe the rack is loose.

Thanks for checking.
