If they inspected the car before they aligned it, they should be able to see if there are any mechanical problems. Do the wheels turn when they are unweighted? I am asking because it could be a strut-bearing problem.
I just had an alignment after having rebuilt the suspension myself (struts, ball joints, bushings caster blocks and steering rack) and unless you have had collision damage, this shop is out to lunch. I took mine to a p-car specialist and the alignment is perfect. Why did they give you a different read-out the second time? Different alignment rack?
Is your manual rack a de-powered power rack or a proper manual?
