This vehicle has a air ride suspension option which can read the height of the vehicle, when weight is added the suspension will compensate by appling air to the front and rear shocks. When weight reduced it will lower by venting air from the shocks. If the entire vehicle sits low there is a problem with the air compressor circuit (quite often water in the system and freezes causing damage to the compressor). In your case if only one side is low, check the front and rear shocks, the lowest wheel probably has a leaking shock and can't rise.
My 2004 Navigator is leaning to the left too? Let us know if you figure it out. I was thinking it could be the leveling sensors too?ThanksMy 2004 Navigator is leaning to the left too? Let us know if you figure it out. I was thinking it could be the leveling sensors too?Thanks
It could be the leveling sensors, however not likely considering there are 2 seperate inputs from the leveling sensors (being front and rear). That being the case if a leveling sensor was to blame it would only sit low in the rear or on one side in the front ( they are independant). I would still suspect a frozen air line or faulty shocks. They do have individual sensors on the top of each shock to feed back info to the suspension module. I would suggest you have it scanned at a large parts retailer for a possible suspension module code. They usually do it for free, in that they like selling parts. If you have a code get back to me and I will further diagnose for you.It could be the leveling sensors, however not likely considering there are 2 seperate inputs from the leveling sensors (being front and rear).

What exaclty is going on with your car? Does it only happen when its cold outside? What issues are you having. It sounds more like an air leak though. let me know what else do you notice?
