Should be one side dropped lower than the rest. Any idea from visual which side and corner.

Drivers front?

Most likely shock/airmatic strut but could be compressor pump/air pump or leak in the lines.

Welcome!

I would recommend just swapping out to a nice set of coil overs. Rides well and is less problematic.

Does the car have aftermarket lowering links? if it does you need to make sure that they are not set up too low if they are you will be having this problem. Does the car lift the front end when you drive and when you come to a stop drop? It should be an easy fix if this is your problem.

You also want to check for maybe a broken link or a link that might have snapped off your suspension.

Good Luck
