No offense but unless all the people you spoke with actually inspected your car, those opinions are not worth a damn.

Have you tested for play? The first thing you do is a visual inspection followed by checking for play at any number of the control arms and bushings. Jack the corner up and see what you can come up with. There are plenty of bushings to go bad.

Additionally, how old are the tires on there? You said they have been replaced but how many miles ago? A new tire could have solved the older tire's wear issues, however if a suspension of driveline component is failing, it will immediately begin causing irregular wear to the new tire. Just because you replaced it does not mean it is still good - poor alignment can eat tread in 100 miles or less.
