I wouldn't bother chasing down other issues until confirming that the alignment is correct. It's possible you don't remember hitting a bump, but maybe you did hit something that threw the alignment off, or slightly bent a tie rod or something. Sounds like a classic case of poor alignment.
come to think of it there was this speed bump on a neighborhood road (i was not familiar with) that didn't really seem like a speed bump...it looked like small incline in the road as if it was recently patched but when i went over it i felt the car slammed down pretty hard so that might have been the culprit

i'll have the alignment checked first

'ppreciate it!
