when you hit the curb, it may hav bent the control arm and messed with your toe in/out and your caster/camber


many changes in the making

you did the alignment yourself , or did you have a place do it?


Check for bent tie-rods ... and just for the hell of it, check your tire pressure on that side too.

while your at it check the steering rack to make sure its fine and also like jerseykid said, check the wheel mabye even rotate them and see if it still does it.

did you do the alignment or take it to the shop?

If you did it , do you have the machine?

a good shop would be looking for bent parts and check the brake calipier for "hanging up"
