Hi Ray, Welcome.

When asking for help on issues we ask that folks include the Year, Model and Floorplan of the RV you are asking about.

We know you have a Sunstar... but what is the model year and the floorplan?

Hi Rayl,
Is it possible you have broken a leaf spring? If not, then air bags can be used to level-out your motorhome.

Eagle5 is right! The cause is most likely a broken spring. Next is much more weight on that side of the MH, 4-corner weighing will determine that.
On much older chassis I've seen leaf springs get weak and cause leaning, but yours is waay too new, unless it's been physically damaged.

Hi Rayl, the previous posts pretty much tell the story. Not sure if you’re the original owner, but if not, you can’t be sure how it was driven and cared for, if modifications were made, if it were extremely overloaded, if airbags were added and one bladder is damaged. My experience is that truck springs don’t break that easily on these rigs. But it could happen. Sounds like you may want a heavy duty truck shop to inspect it.

Good luck.
