You better check the y motor gear shaft for play. The shaft can get ruined if it is left too long. Catch it in time and you only need new bearings. Just try and wiggle the shaft around to test for slop.

You guys might be right I'll check all that tomorrow..... [in a snide voice]... And yes of coarse I've changed the brushes... geeze....Lmao
May be a broken tooth in the plastic gear. Rolled sandpaper belt or rubber belt rubbing the board sensor brass roller. Also check side of board by brass roller for any imperfections. Or as Al would say add masking tape.
I'm back... It's all about the Brass Roller... 7 inch rule of wood possibly in this case... That cut path is shifting in the X axis... The board is loosing contact with the brass roller...

The wood is select pine and perfectly square. I always select stay under rollers also. This is a new occurrence with every cutout for the past 5 signs. Is there anything I can do to check roller before having to replace?
If you have sandpaper belts, check for belt roll under.
If you have rubber belts, check that the belt is not interfering with the brass roller.
Do you see the brass roller tracks on the board?
Check the head pressure.
Check out feed rollers too high.
Sandpaper belts are fine...Yes, you can see the tracks on the board and there are no areas that the board left contact with the roller...Head pressure is good...feed rollers don't actually touch the board, they sit a bit low but the board is only 24" long and not heavy.
I'm not sure where to go from here. I can carve fine but cannot cut anything out?
What version of software are you running?
