Where brakes are concerned, abnormalities should be attended to immediately as this is a safety concern.

Something is loose/worn or damaged with the brake and/or related parts and clunking noise could be anything. You need to diagnose where the noise is coming from and proceed with rectification.

Have the brake system checked. Check for worn wheel bearings, pads, disc.
