Even when they are not broken, the shade bends even when sitting still. Also, I noted each bracket is held in by only one screw, and since the screws are simply run into the wallboard, they are stripped and really not doing much. I resolved this by putting in three screws with proper anchors, but I want to put more than two brackets on the heavy blinds, so I'll need extras when I replace the broken ones.
I don't know why the lack of quality continues to surprise me.

I had the two in my 33SW break off while driving and it nearly took out one of the windows. The RV tech that fixed it had Thor send him 4 new brackets and he installed them into the valance. Then he put L-brackets up (5) to hold the valance better. Works great now. This is a problem I have identified to Thor for their future installs.
