Yes
The window on our emergency door in the full bath failed. The adhesive that holds the bracket to the window and opens and closes the window failed. The Newmar Tech and the Parts Dept Rep I spoke to didn't know. Lippert makes the window and suggested I call them.
I'm thinking I should try to clean and use an adhesive of some sort to try to reattach the bracket to the window. Does anyone know the adhesive to use?

Maybe to help others, Lippert's phone number is 432-547-7378 and the size of the window is 16.125" x 24"
 
I spoke to a Lippert Tech who reported that the adhesive they use along with the process of attaching is proprietary. Even if he could tell me, the adhesive wouldn't work because they use heat and humidity controls along with it and wouldn't work for me anyway.
The model # for the window is V000486513
 
On my 2020 Coach I had several windows fall into the adhesive recall, but couldn't be replaced due to supplies and timing in getting into the shop. I used several strips of Alien tape after carefully cleaning off all residue I could reach and so far it has held up.

Your 2020 I would think would fall into the same recall.
 
Mine failed within the first month replaced under warranty. Had 3 others replaced under recall in Sep 2021

Thanks for the responses!
Scott, what did you use to clean up the residue? I'm thinking of using Naptha followed by 3M 08609 Window-Weld Super Fast Urethane.
