Brakes problem
1998 GMC Jimmy 6 cyl Four Wheel Drive Automatic

My car makes a loud clunk noise when I push on the brakes. Does not do it every time but seems like it does it more after I drive it a while. What could it be?

It could be a few things. First, check to make sure the calipers are tight. Next, check steering components, especially the ball joints.

Let me know what you find.
