A bent steering knuckle will cause negative camber and may not allow for enough positive adjustment to get to where it needs to be.
I don't know of anything I've hit that would have bent the steering, and I haven't been hit by anything. The last time the car was aligned, three years ago, it was OK.

On the right front wheel, the Specified Range on his printout is -0.3 to 0.7 degrees Camber. The actual Camber he noted on my right front wheel was -0.7 degrees.
