That seems highly unlikely: R should be using different axes for
independent plots.

Please provide a reproducible example, using fake data or built-in
data, or using dput()
with your own data.

The correct answer depends on what the format actually is; you need to
use dput() or some other unambiguous way of providing sample data.

Without a reproducible example that includes some sample data provided
using dput() (fake is fine), the code you used, and some clear idea of
what output you expect, it's impossible to figure out how to help you.
Here are some suggestions for creating a good reproducible example:
