Have the vehicle checkout, a ball joint should not make the car shake ( There are other components that would of been removed to change the ball joint. There is obviously something lose or installed incorrectly. Check the torque of the wheel nuts as a lose wheel may be the culprit. There is a possibility of steering or suspension failure, DO NOT drive the vehicle until it is repaired.
cause the front wheels to lock up, causing the driver to lose steering control.
Not the steering wheel shake itself, however what is causing the steering wheel shake, can certainly be extremely dangerous and potentially cause you to lose control of the vehicle. **GET IT CHECKED OUT BEFORE THAT HAPPENS**
Yes it can, and if it is, trust me this just happened to me, you got to fix it as fast as possible. If you just blow it off you can be looking at some dire consequences. 1) The CV joint can abruptly fail and you will lose all drive power, if one CV joint goes your differential will NOT power the other wheel. 2) if you are driving at a good click, the RPMs on the CV joint will cause it to fail and the CV joint will tear up the inside of your engine. 3) In rare occasions the failure could cause one of your wheels to lock up and you will lose most if not all control of your car. Moral of the story is do not drive any long distances from your house on a bad CV joint unless you have money to blow on a tow. You can buy a replacement CV joint at any Auto Parts store for 75-125 dollars, I advice to get one with a lifetime warranty. DO NOT DRIVE ON A BAD CV JOINT!
No, it can't. Unless you have punctured the tire with the end of sway bar ball joint.

With non independType your answer here... With non-independent one wheel going over a bump will cause the other wheel to move, and maybe lose a little traction. With independent what happens to one wheel won't affect the other wheel.
standard ball joints will outlive sealed ones because eventually the seal will break, causing the joint to dry out and rust. While there is no exact lifespan that can be put on a sealed ball joint, they can fail as early as 125,000 miles. Signs of a failing ball joint start with a clicking or snapping sound when the wheel is turned and eventually turns into a squeaking sound at the end of a stop, when the gas pedal is used and/or also when hitting bumps. Please note that if a ball joint fails, the results can be dangerous as the wheel will attempt to fall off the vehicle, causing one to lose control.
yes, it does. Once the outer tie rod is loose or damage the wheel automatically lose strength and start shaking.
Probably a bad wheel bearing. Have it checked soon before you lose a wheel.
