You didn't say what model Winne - does your roof air drain out the rear of the motor home? If so, there is a pump that may not be connected to the hose that runs to the rear discharge.

I had a leak in mine where the TV antenna was mounted. Water from the AC would pool by the antenna, leak in, and find its way back into the RV at the AC unit. I sealed up the antenna and no more drips out of the AC. Water follows the path of least resistance and is very difficult to trace - particularly in a structure that moves around and changes pitch/level.

Yes it might, the pan might be filling up, should be more than one drain hole but dirt can clog them up,
If the pan can't drain, it will come inside

BTW hope your not using the fridge
Not good for the RV absorption fridge, If you are that far off level
I can explain it to you.
But I Can Not understand it for you !

If it is a roof air conditioner, it may be possible that the seal to the roof is not tight and water is coming in. You will know for sure when it rains.

If the a/c is cooling properly than I am betting on the drain holes being plugged up, happened to me once. Get up on the roof and remove the a/c cover and check, should be an easy fix.

Please turn off the caps lock. It's considered yelling/rude on forums.
Good luck.

I think the slant would have to be so great for that to happen you would be uncomfortable in the motorhome. Most likely there are drain holes on the bottom of the ac for moisture to drain. Is the unit cooling?

IM THINKING THAT THE AC USUALLY DRIPS OFF THE CORNER OUTSDE OF THE MOTORHOME BUT MAYBE CAUSE OF THE SLANT IT CAN'T AND IS DRAINING WHERE IT CAN!?

sometimes the ac will freeze up if you running it on LOW speed. After it thaws make sure to run it on high speed.
I don't think slant will cause the problem. You might take the inside cover off and you will find 4 threaded bolts pointing down...they should be snug opposed to being loose.
