I don’t know they didn’t mention it, but could it cause what I’m experiencing ?

It'* certainly not helping any.

Did they possibly do just a front end alignment?

I would be having the alignment checked again if they didn't mention that.

You can't do a front end alignment without checking tires(pressure/condition), ride height, and ALL suspension components(front and rear), first....if something is not up to snuff, the alignment shouldn't even be attempted......

Someone didn't know what they were doing.....

I agree with rjolly87 and Tech II and suggest you go find a better alignment shop. Not catching a wheel that is that far out of whack is pretty negligent.

Also my steering wheel no longer locks in position and I can turn it fully with no key in ignition.

Sounds like the infamous intermediate shaft knock.......but everything should be checked out, like tie rod ends, bearing plates, etc....something that should have been checked during that alignment....

I just had everything checked and they said that the passenger swaybar has a play and is very loose basically not attached getting that replaced and see if it helps .

So . . . you're getting the sway bar replaced again? Not trying to be incredulous or anything, but that'* more sway bar replacements (for repair, not modification) than I've heard of in my life.
