'01 Expedition Air suspension problems

Hi, I have have a problem with my rear air suspension on my '01 Expedition 4x2 XLT. Maybe once or twice a week (at most) i would come out to get in my car early in the morning and the rear end would be all the way down. First time i saw it i was thinking the airbags we gone but once i start up the car it raises right back up with no problems and i can't hear any leaks.

It doesn't happen everyday so i'm wondering if you would know what is the problem before i bring it to the stealership.

Thanks!

Possibly the union in the master cylinder area or a faulty height sensor.
If you want to try 'em, I have a brand new connector I got from Ford as spare and a tested working height sensor. PM me if interested and I'll let it go of both for reasonable price of $39 conus/shipped/ppl - that's possibly less than half the diagnostics cost at the dealership and you'll have spare at the very least. Let me know: orleec at yahoo dot com. Thnx
