Jack the wheel up (secure with jack stands) and try to make the wheel move by grabbing at 3 & 9 o'clock then 12 & 6 o'clock. There should be no discernible movement.
The earlier models had issues with the strut mounts wearing out and causing a sharp knocking noise over bumps. Sounded like it was coming from behind the glove box.
There was another issue in the early models of the anti-sway bar mount breaking and causing a thumping noise down low. It felt like it was under my feet (it actually was too).
Is your steering loose? Does the car stop ok?
