Grease them, or replace them.

Most new cars came with lifetime lubricated the ball joints. When you start hearing clanking sounds while driving the lubricant has dried out. Intense heat and cold will dry out life time lubricants. This is time to puncture the rubber covering the ball joint and inject grease the groaning sounds will be gone. Then apply silicone or permatax to the joint spaces where you punctured.
