When I put the car into drive and start accelerating it makes a clunking noise it sounds like it's coming from the front drivers side. It does not do it in reverse. It only does it when I first start going it doesn't matter if its straight or turning.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

It can be a few different things. First, does it only happen when you first accelerate? Is there any noise when you hit bumps? Have you had the vehicle to the dealer? It is still under bumper to bumper warranty.

Based on your description, it sounds like either a ball joint issue or a bushing issue.

Let me know if there is anything other that causes it.

Take care,
Joe
