Shocks and struts kit 2021

Hi there.
I am new here and need some help.
My car I bought used and 2 weeks later after working with rideshare I figured out some knocking and noise coming from the front. I bring the car to inspect in a local mechanic and he said I need to change the front pair of struts. But he said only the dealer sells it, and he can't do it.
Someone know where I can get these parts without going to the dealer (sorry low budget now) ? Mine is a 2021 Chrysler Pacifica Touring L.
I was looking in the internet and can find only until 2020 year. Does will be the same to fit in the 2021? Can't find anywhere, even in Ebay or Amazon.
Also, can I do it by myself? I have a little knowledge skills as a mechanic.

Thanks in advance

Just google search 21 Pacifica strut and you’ll see . And you probably are mistaken the dealer telling that mopar sells a dealer strut kit for the Pacifica . There’s many a manufacturers that make struts for Pacifica besides mopar own

but you are in Canada. I am in USA and after a Google search only shows me results from 2017 to 2020 only. I mean its that hard to find this parts for the new 2021 model?

There was a recall on the front axle nut torque, it made noise if it wasn't tightened. Maybe this is the cause? Seems pretty fast for struts on a 2021, Unless it has some big miles on ruff surfaces.
I am very frustrated. I bought the car 1 month ago. Have 68k miles. And suddenly started this noises, like knocking in the front. I bring ro a mechanic close to me and he put in the elevator and said was the struts the problem.

Yes I saw this link from Mopar too but seems a little confused. Only that draw, no real pictures. Also that draw looks like the shocks are inverted. Doesn't looks for the Pacifica according what I seem here in my car. I don't know. You said have a lot after market out there, can you please recommend one? A link? Because I didn't find any in Google. Thanks
