SOURCE: 2003 chey malibu does not start

This car has a switch on the steering wheel post that hooks to the key by a linkage. It sounds like that switch is going bad. My daughter had one that went out gradually and it took a while to figure it out. It is much cheaper than a starter!

SOURCE: a clunk when i turn

It sounds like your CV Joint is worn. Simple check is to drive in a left circle and then right circle. If the noise get's worst when your turning left or right, then it's time to change the CV Joints.
Might as well change both sides since they have the same miles.
Total CV joint failure = Tow to the shop. 
Good luck and hope this helps.

SOURCE: makes winding in the front end when driving straight or turning right

Hi it needs a hub bearing sounds like the left one
jack up the left side so the left wheel is off the ground and start the vehicle and spin the wheel up to about 30 mph and you should hear the same noise and if not jack up the right side and do the same
hope this helps you

WHY DOES THE HORN ON MY 1995 TOYOTA CAMARY ONLY WORK WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS FULLY TURNED TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AND NOT WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS STRAIGHT AHEAD

pull the steering wheel and check the wear ring under the wheel that the brass contact plunger runs on
it is possible that for the straight ahead position the ring is worn away

2004 Toyota highlander steering wheel is locked but turned halfway, key wont turn and wheels are straight

there is a load on the lock pin in the steering column try turning the steering wheel a bit left or right to release the pin as you try turning the key.
Steering wheel locks never lock straight ahead as the idea is that if the car is being stolen it will turn a circle rather that move straight

When I try to park on the right side of the street my van stops making the turn.

check for central position of the rack/ steering box. If there has been recent work on the steering ,it is possible that the box/rack was not in the straight ahead position before it was connected up.

Steering wheel not centred when driving in straight ahead.

2 ways to resolve. Take steering wheel off and recenter on spline ( done by dealer or auto electrician due to air bag) , or do a wheel alignment adjusting tie rod ends same distance as each other ie move both wheels left to right or vice versa.

Auto won't start

curious, i've seen this before but not whith this kind of car. if you park with the steering wheel turned to one side or the other, when you shut the car off, the power steering also shuts off. this could be putting pressure on the steering wheel when it locks off. next time, before turning off the motor, aim the wheels straight ahead first. be sure the steering wheel is straight on before you turn the engine off. this time, when you turn the motor off, the power steering will not be a factor. hopefully it eliminate the problem.
