Tires, wheel bearings, and bushings can cause this, get it repaired or find another car, it's not worth dieing over.

Since you had your alignment and tire balance checked they should have also checked your tie rod ends. idler, struts, CV joints and wheel bearings so that should rule them out as the problem.
Brake pads worn so bad going metal to metal and trying to lock up. Or new pads were put on with out turning the disc or replacing the disc. Or could be equalizer valve or calipers. If Pads were allowed to get too worn before changing could have worn ridges in your calipers causing them to hang up.
