Road noise, vibration, thud noises I know there is another thread going on about this, but mine is different and I did not want to hijack his thread. My car broke down sat night and I just got it back and now its broken again. Unrelated problem.
It was just vibrating around 50mph, you could feel it through the gas pedal and when I turned left or right it made a clicking noise and vibrated. Then it just got worse and worse. Finally at every speed it was just going thud thud thud thud and the faster I went the quicker it happened and the slower, the slower it happened. You could feel a thud when you turn the wheel left or right. Any ideas? It sounds like its coming from the front driver side area.

This may sound dumb, but My car did the exact same thing when some kid went to a bunch of houses in my neighborhood and broke my front lug studs loose on my wheel. First I could just feel it in the gas pedal, then it started to get worse and started shaking the whole car. A bunch of my neighbors had this happen to them as well, I am just glad that my wheel didnt fall off because it ended up breaking three of the studs. on the drivers side. Hope this helped
