Default Sagging tanabe

It seems like my tanabe lowering springs is sagging just on the driver side. Only had them for 20k miles. you can tell by looking at the front of the vehicle. I also installed new front kyb struts 5k miles ago.
Anyone else have this problem???

Thanks

yes mine was sagging on the driver rear. couldnt figure out why even though all my shocks where fine struts. i used some spacers from autozone to even them out.

I thought my 450h was sagging. But if you measure the level of the car, it is level front and back. The rear quarter panel is lower than front giving the look of it being uneven. I have seen gs on airbags with frame on the ground and the rear quarter panel is lower than front fender.

i got them from oreillys not autozone but im sure autozone caries them.

and yes our rear fenders are lower than our front.
