Car was a little wobbly at high speeds a few months ago. Got it balanced, then got new ball joints and became wobbly all the time and pulled dangerously off the road. Got car aligned and balanced again, car continues to pull off the road. Can anything besides an alignment cause the car to be so out of whack? The alignment was $200 at the dealer, it goes back in Wednesday but thought I'd see if any fellow owners have some insight. Thanks!

wheel bearings, tires, bent rim ect. But anygood shop should be able to find it. Even if its not the alignment. Tell them everything you can about what its doing, or go for a test drive with the tech.

I would check control arm bushings and swap sides with the tires if they are not directional. If it pulls the opposite way that means you have a cone shaped tire. My brother had this happen to him on one of his vehicles.
