Its time for a front end check It could be lots of things, Shocks, tie rods ends, upper and lower ball joints, bushings Take to an alignment shop and have it checked, hope this helped
If you have the capabilities of checking it at home, Start by looking at bushings. The bushings that connect the control arm to the frame is a great place to start, especially if you are also having some instabilty problems at higher speeds. Next thing you should check is the shock and strut monuts, If a strut mount has worn out it will cause a lot of knocking noise. This vehicle most likely is equipped with a parrelogram steering system and one most common problem with this steering system is the idler arm. Idler arms always seem to go bad often and although it may not be the nosie you are hearing it can still cause alignment issues and tire wear. Either way what ever the nose is and when you fix it make sure you get the alignment done afterwards.
Since you don't mention any problems with the steering wandering around on the highway, I would check the easy things first, like a loose front brake caliper. You could also check for other problems by jacking up the front wheel side that the noise may be coming from (like you were going to change the tire). First simply rotate the tire and listen for noises. Then push and pull tire top to bottom and side to side to check for play. Check the caliper bolts and lever or push with a broom handle to see if the caliper moves. However, you need a jackstand under the frame rail for safety since you can't depend on the car's jack to hold up the car safely while your jostling with it and under the fender well etc. Check for a leaking, damaged or loose shock absorber.
