The theory in Foreigner prologue is that they collided with some anomaly in hyperspace-- a fold in spacetime or a singularity attached to the binary star they ended up at that sucked them off course to the binary instead of them exiting at the planned exit point. I don't remember, but I don't think that they ever really figure out just what kind of anomaly caused the original accident. They're only sure it wasn't a ship or crew error.
