Why is my Kia Sportage making a clunking noise when turning?

I recently noticed a clunking noise coming from my Kia Sportage when making sharp turns. I checked the suspension and it all seems to be in good condition. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

This could be an issue with your CV joints, which can wear out over time. I would recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic to have it inspected and potentially replaced if needed.

Another possible cause could be worn out sway bar links. These can also produce a clunking noise when turning. I suggest getting these checked as well during your mechanic visit.

Make sure to also check the power steering system for any leaks or issues. A malfunctioning power steering pump or rack can also cause clunking noises.
