Most obvious thing is a bent wheel but if you're lucky, a weight just got knocked off. Have the front tires balanced. A bent wheel will show up there as long as the mechanic knows to look for that. That means you have to explain why you want the wheels balanced. If the mechanic doesn't know that, he won't look under the protective shield.
