Your power steering fluid is low... Do not drive the car untill you fill this up... Have a look under the hood and you will see a small bottle saying power steering fluid only... Fill this up to the mark and it should back to normal... Check for leaks tho as its not normal for power steering to get that low unless the car has a poor service history or a leak. You may need to top it up again after filling it for the first time.

Check the fluid in your steering pump. Refill it and look for leaks in the hoses that attach to it. The immediate problem is that you are low in power steering fluid.

Makes a noise wen turning left

Its hard to describe noises simply by text of course. I feel sure you have checked your power steering fluid, but in case you haven't do that first and try to make sure it has the correct fluid. A remote possibility would be CV joints, but they tend to make a clicking sound. A worn out PS pump or one low of fluid can indeed make a roaring sound. Pumps normally work flawlessly past 100,000 miles.

Knocking sound at steering wheel during turning of mistubishi adventure

It sounds like a ball joint is worn, possibly the rack end ball joint or tie rod end.
With the bumpy ride it could also be that the front shock absorber has failed.
Jack the front wheel up on each side in turn, grab the wheel at each side and shake it back and forth as hard as you can. If you hear or feel looseness, the problem is in the steering, as above.
Then shake the wheel while holding it at top and bottom. If you feel looseness then, the problem is in the front suspension wishbones.
Repeat this on the other front wheel. Let it down on the ground, then bounce each front corner up and down as hard as you can (you might have to have a second person with you doing this). If you hear a clunk or feel excessive bounciness, it is the shock absorber. When bouncing like this, the car should resist, and not keep bouncing when you let go.

When parking my 89 f150 heard snap sound when turning steering wheel. Now hardly will turn and grinding feeling in steering wheel

there is a bolt and linkage that is holding your wheel snapped on you and you seriosuly need to look at it to see by you being outside when the hood is up and have someone in the truck turn the wheel and you should be able to hear what is going on with your ears so you might have to take it into a mechanic to get it fixed.
