Front end collision question??

Hey guys, recently got into a fender bender. Rear ended someone doing about 10 mph, YES I KNOW but the old man slammed on the brakes for no reason and was all woozy on pills. Still should have been paying more attention. Anyways it did about 10 grand in damage, just got it back two weeks ago and the shop did a very nice job. However, I swear something is a little off unless it is all in my head. It seems like it shakes/vibrates when I hit the brakes at any speed over 30-40 mph. The steering wheel doesn't shake, it's just coming from the front end. Just feels a lot different when braking now, could my alignment have been thrown off?Because I took it to Nissan a few days ago and had them look at it while I was getting my oil changed. They said it looked fine, and the brakes looked fine but I don't know how thorough their inspection was. The car is a 2017 with under 30k miles, I bought it new and this is the only incident. Any ideas on what it could be?Maybe a wheel weight flew off? haha
