Small Gap in Slide, Bottom Corner Only

Hello, I have a 2015 Montana Mountaineer with a small gap on the rear bunkhouse slide. The top is fine and tight but the bottom corner is out about an inch on one side only. The opposite top and bottom of the same slide is tight. It almost seems as though The bottom is out 1 or two teeth.
Does anyone have advice on how to tighten up a small gap?

It is possible that your slide is "out of synch", the proof is in the tape. Extend the slide and once the front edge makes contact let off the switch.

Then measure the distance from the trailer body to the exterior wall of the slide. Do this at the same spot on both ends. Of the measurement is within 1/4" IIRC its considered okay.

What type of slide mechanism do you have?
