Your front end alignment was not done correctly or was incomplete. You must return it to where the alignment was done and tell them they have to fix it. They just did not do it right and must finish the job until it is good and doesn't do these things when they drive it to check it out. Don't let them get away with no completing the job you paid them to do.
check the drop links and anti roll bar rubbers, drop links connect from the suspension and connect to the roll bar, any play in these parts makes corning difficult. second thing is weak shocks.
Could be a multitude of problems.
suspension drop links
anti roll bar bushes
ball joint
suspension mount
gearbox mounting
exhaust loose
wheel bearing
suspension strut
drive shaft
Best to get a mechanic check it to determine the problem as it could be any of the above.
Check the drop link and sway bar (anti roll bar) bushes also the knock could be in the strut top or the strut itself, maybe disconnect the drop link to the sway bar and drive over a pothole and see if the knock is still there.
