1. check the mounts especially middle one.
2. check tie rods
3. check knuckles bolts
4. check strut mounts
5. check steering columns (mid and bottom)
6. if fine then wheel alignment.

Next time don't trust anyone who does lazy work.

Check the pinch bolt on the ball joint under the disc brake rotor.

Make SURE that the ball joint is seated completely, before the bolt was installed.
