I just had to remove the side panels and tighten the screws.

My Press can no longer reach the left side of the build volume to lower and raise its z-probe. 2. My Press can't print because each successive layer is shifted to the right (since it thinks the extruder is farther left than it actually is).

Has anyone else experienced this issue? It appeared suddenly with no apparent cause, and no software or hardware changes (I'm using Repetier Host btw).

Here is a video of the problem in action:
