2003 Jaguar X-Type bumpy ride

Suspension problem
2003 Jaguar X-Type 6 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic 102000 miles

Just had all 4 shocks and both lower control arms replaced on my car. The ride had gotten very bumpy over time and I figured the shocks were to blame. I used a reputable garage that only services Euro cars. Since the replacements there has been no difference in ride and the steering feels looser than before. Could the shocks need a "break-in" period? Is there something else here that I should look at?
