5 In the back of your car you have air ride. Air ride is when your suspension is air bags and an air compressor instead of normal coil springs or struts. There are 2 reasons your car is not supporting itself. Either the air compressor for the air ride is bad and can not make pressure to hold itself up, and to fix that would be to install a new compressor. Or the other reason is your car is leaking air somewhere out of the air ride. The lines going to the bags could have been snagged by something underneath or the air bags could have just gotten to worn out and deteriorated to the point of leaking. The way to fix it is to replace the leaking part. If it is the air bags that are leaking i suggest you do them in together so one bag is not doing more work then another which would cause a leaning problem. If you are the one to work on this problem or someone you know make sure number one priority is to make sure the car is properly jacked up while doing this and to make sure you depressurize the air ride. If you do not depressurize the system it could cause personal injury.
