lappir Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 It's been a while, but on a long trip I kept hearing air moving on occasion while driving. Thought I had left an upper window open in the sleeper area, but they were closed when I stopped. Kept hearing it and finally saw in the mirror the upper window was flopping open and then closed. I stopped and found the mechanism either broken or had come out of the track. Put some Gorilla tape on it and I think now is the time to try and fix it. Anyone done a repair?

rickeieio Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 On our 770, the lower passenger side window would creep open. Well, until one day in west Texas, it popped open and jumped ship, taking the mechanism with it. It wasn't cheap.

Problem is the tape is no longer sticking, so a better fix is needed. Where did you get the repair done?
