My 2002 isuzu trooper, when viewed from the back, tilts to the left. When I took it to the dealer, they said that they adjusted the leaf springs on both sides. That helped a bit, but it still tilts. Car runs fine, but looks odd that way. They said that they would have to add a leaf spring if this adjustment didn't work. Any help diagnosing this and giving me an idea of what it will take to correct this? Thanks!

Your spring on that side is weak, or has a broken leaf, replace the springs!

Bill google automotive spring repair, and a shop in your area should come up, there are shops that specialize in springs and front end repair!
