Sometimes when turning sharp left at slow speeds, like pulling into a parking space, I get a clunking and/or a grinding sound. What could the problem be?

Get the front drive shaft CV checked, sounds as if one has failed, you can look under the car and if the rubber boot at either end of either shaft is split and grease is leaking. They will require replacing.
