I know a lot of suggestions have been made but so far no one has mentioned the most likely. I used to have a nissan altima that had a worn tie rod. Sometimes when you turn the wheel it would clunk 1 or 2 times, or also over some small bumps...clunk...clunk. Well, I got the tie rod replaced and all is well. You can check by jacking one of the front tires up and wiggling the wheel. If you feel any play, or especially if you can hear slight clicking, your tie rod is worn. Most mechanic shops (expertire, midas, etc.) will confirm this for free. You could also take it to any of your local shops. Make sure you have a shop check the alignment after this is done because sometimes it gets thrown off.
