Has a whining/humming sound when accelerating. Noise continues at driving speed.

Also, noise from front when turning left.

Check front CV joint boots for leaks/rips/tears. This may be the noise while turning.

The humming could be a hub assy. Try This:

Raise car, put on stands. Grasp tire and push/pull both horizontally and vertically, if any movement then possible wheel bearing, ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing.

Check CV boots for any signs of leakage or cuts/rips in rubber boot.
