Exercise treadmill troubleshooting help please!?

Hi! I was running on my treadmill when it suddenly caused me to almost fall as it felt like the Walking Belt was skipping or hitting the side. I stopped quick and noticed that the walking belt had shifted to the side and my manual reads that you use the allen wrench on the rear bolts at the end of the treadmill, you can then adjust the belt and center it, then back with the wrench to tighten the bolts back up. I did just that and carefully not to overtighten the walking belt like it said. I tested it and ran again, I noticed while running that the belt was shifting again slowly but from the front of the treadmill or by the "hood" of it and not the rear of the treadmill. I did call the service place but until they come out (it’ll cost a fortune), has anybody had an experience like this? Do you think it maybe needs a new belt? After adjusting & centering the belt a few times, only the front continues to shift and you can’t adjust the belt from the front with the wrench. Thank u!
