it is bad for the bags to completely drain, and with out the air ride on it will be very unsafe exspecially if air bags are not inflated.

Suggested Repair

Keep the air suspension switched on for daily driving. Do not let the air bags fully drain, because that damages the bags and makes the car unsafe when the air ride is off and the bags are not inflated.
