Did they take the steering wheel off to straighten it up after setting the wheel alignment, if they did they might not have put it back together properly and maybe damaged one of the column bushes

might not be related but sounds like a track rod ends have been disturbed ie need replacing but dont rule this out just yet have the car checked out again by who ever tracked the car to see if they can resolve the problem for you and if they are connected then they can replace them and track the car up again at the same time for you
