I have a loud roaring sound at pretty much all speeds, but it will stop when making a left turn. Could this be a front wheel bearing?

I would say that sounds like it's the bearing. It's a little odd about the left turn, but the wheel must be pulling or pushing a force on the bearing. I'm not sure if's it's a lot of work to replace, but they are like $20 to buy at the link below (inner and outer). My03 saab 93 bearing went bad and it was like a new car when it was fixed.... about $400 at the dealership.

Hope this helps....
