There is a clunking noise when I turn left out of my driveway and any time I have to make a sharp turn.

Good afternoon.

It could be several things.

1. Engine mount shifting from too much play.

2. Strut mount or worn strut.

3. Stabilizer link kit loose or broken.

4. Lower control arm bushing is worn.

5. Lower ball joint.

5. Axle shaft joint whether inner or outer worn.
