Alignment question

I have 87’ 300TD and I noticed some uneven wear on the tires. My wife brought the car in for a front end alignment and it drove straight before (with a very, very slight pull to the right – but nothing excessive) but now it pulls hard to the right. Additionally, the steering wheel is cocked to the right (wasn’t before). I called the shop and spoke with the guy who did the “alignment”, and he said he only adjusted the “toe” or “tow” and didn’t touch anything else.

My questions are:
- if the toe is adjusted and nothing else touched, can that effect how straight the car drives?
- Are Mercedes more difficult to align then other cars?
- What parts could fail that would make the suspension “un-alignable”

Thanks!

-Mike
