Cable problems are a common possibility

A loose, broken or improperly seated lift cable can leave one side of the door carrying a different load than the other.

Tracks and rollers also matter

A roller leaving the track or a damaged track can pull the door out of normal alignment.

Do not try to level it by force

Pushing or pulling on a crooked door can create additional damage or expose you to tensioned hardware.
