What symptoms would you get if a front strut is not seated properly?

Rookie mistake, I know. I just noticed it today. I get shaking when I put the car underload while turning to one side not the other and I just changed a cv axle and noticed when I replaced the wheel bearing, I didn't align the notch in the back of the strut, and it's bent sideways. So, this whole time the strut was not seated all the way in. Would this cause that problem or another one that may be going on while driving?
