2015 30DS Window Locks

Hi wondering if anyone has had the sliding window frame portion with the lock come off. Mine has done this repeatedly and had it rented it and the renters lost the part. Click image for larger version

Mine was constantly coming off too. Finally got some clear silicone caulk (like the stuff used on windows and bathrooms). Took off the rubbers levee that goes on the window and put a small bead on the inside of it. Also put a small bead on the inside edge of the window. Slid the rubber sleeve back on. Used a piece of wood between the partially opened window and the frame (closest to the back of the driver's seat. Use another piece of wood against the window opener (the piece that came off) and tap the piece of wood to get the piece back onto that rubber sleeve. Once the silicone dries it hopefully won't come back off! FYI - I used too much silicone so I had to use a window scraper to clean off the window.
