Unhappy Clunking noise on front left wheel. HELP!

I have an 06 IS250 that recently started making a clunking/rattling noise on the front left wheel when going over bumpy roads. It sounds like it is coming from the rim, break area... The struts and the sway bar links have been changed, but the noise still continues. The car has been checked and all bolts are intact, nothing is loose. The noise stops when I press the breaks even as it is going down bumpy and bad roads... Anyone with the same issue? Suggestions?
Thank you all in advance!!

@JulieA20 Have the brakes inspected. It could be a caliper or the brake pads. A broken or loose caliper bolt will allow the caliper to move when it shouldn't. I've also seen brake pads that were loose inside the caliper because a brake clip wasn't installed or it was lost. It could be a relatively simple and inexpensive fix. Good luck!
