Default steering problem

ok here is the story.
when making a right turn at an intersection, i span out and crushed on the curb.
the car actually went on the curb and came down.
the passenger front wheel hit the curb first.
after that, the car was lean towards right and the steering wheel was off towards right also.

then, i took my car to the alignment shop. they told me i need to change the lower control arm. that should fix the problem.

but now when i make a right turn, the car doesn't respond as fast as before.
and sometimes when i turn the steering wheel 30 degree to the right, the car still giong straight. then it slowing turns to the right.

what might be the problem here?
is there anything i can do to fix it?
