Tis sounds like an issue I had recently. Turned out to be the tie rod end.

The car would have a noticeable clunk when turning at slow speed. Also, a stretch of washboard road would induce a shimmy/wobble oscillation in the steering.

Most of the time the car drove well.

The repair was not overly expensive (about $350 at my local Tire Kingdom), but getting the right part can be tricky.

This is a dangerous issue to be left unresolved. If a tie rod end fails, you will not be able to steer.
