Which Suntour fork is it? They make many ranging from complete censored to really very good.

Could be the coil rattling inside the stanchion tube.
if it's new take it back to the shop to get it checked.
It is one of Suntours better forks so should be good.

Check your caliper is tightly fastened and your wheel too. It could be that simple.
Many happy trails!

Almost certainly, but with the info provided it's pretty impossible to say what the cause is.
