Multiple warning lights, tire pressure, traction control, and steering wheel.

Just had my alignment done. About 20 miles after I noticed that my steering wheel is way off the the left and 3 different sensors came one. One with a steering wheel and exclamation point, one is traction control and one is the tpms light that blinks when I start the car up. The guy that did my alignment said I should probable replace the front shocks which I plan to. But why would these sensors come on after an alignment?

The electronic stability control system has steering alignment sensors. My guess is they were either disturbed or not reset at the end of the alignment, hence the multiple warning lights:

Interesting. I've never even heard of those. Thanks for the tip. I'll bring it up when I bring it back. I always do my own work when applicable but I don't have alignment tools.
