Well, I just got back from the shop and my suspicion of a bad wheel hub was correct. In fact, they both had enough play in them to require replacing them. They also found wear in both outer tie rods, so they were replaced as well. Total cost: $956 
My cost $125 - $75 for my deductable on the warranty and $50 for the alignment that the warranty didn't cover. Not too shabby on my wallet. I'm sure glad I decided to put a warranty on the car when I bought it. What really made my day was one of the mechanics told me several times I had the best 6th gen Monte he had ever seen and kept asking me if I wanted to sell it.
