Does the vehicle listed above have CV joints? When I turn to the left it makes a clicking noise and also continues to make that clicking noise while driving up to about 30 MPH.

Short answer is yes they do. If it is clicking when turning then I suspect this is the issue.

I attached the process for a Grand Cherokee due to the motor you selected. This is only available on the Grand and not the Cherokee but if you have then Cherokee then just let us know but they as well have CV axles so that won't change the answer much. Thanks
