List to one side

I have a 2016 Winnebago Vista. Not long after we purchased the vehicle, we went on a long summer trip across the country. We were gone for 5 weeks. Somewhere during that trip, she developed a slight lean to the side. Any idea what could cause this? We have taken her back to the dealership for other repairs over the years but this has never been fixed. Also, any suggestions for reputable repair places in southern California? We have only taken her back to the dealer and have not always been satisfied with the results.

several reasons come to mind...in no particular order...

1 - improper loading. did you acquire new possessions on your trip like Lucy did in The Long Long Trailer?

2 - bad/broken shock and/or spring?

3 - low tire pressure?

When we bought our 2016 Vista it leaned to the right with about a 4”+ difference. Once it was taken to a Ford dealer they found the sway bar bracket on the rear sway bar on the right side missing. They replaced it and the right side is now within Winnebago specs on ride heights. Everybody is going to say that the sway bar does not affect lean but it sure did on ours. I could not believe that it would cause the lean but replacing the bracket sure cured our problem and helped in the handling.
