Default Clunking Noise when making sharp turn

Hey folks,

Well, I'm back with yet another issue....

Just recently, since it has gotten really cold here, I have noticed a severe clunking noise on the driver side front end whenever I make sharp turns. It's best described as if the tire was hitting something and causing something else to "skip". Only problem is...the tire isn't hitting anything.

I've taken it to the dealer and can't seem to recreate it as this seems to only happen when the car is cold...i.e., when I'm leaving for work in the AM or leaving work to come home. By the time I drive to the dealer, the car is warm and the noise is no where to be found.

The clunking is so bad that it actually shakes the car.

I have a 2009 Touring Sport.

Any suggestions? Does anyone know of a TSB for this?
