Sliding window handle falling off

Hi All,

We have a 2015 Thor Chateau 30' on our second x-country trip currently in Branson, MO on our way to Vancouver through San Diego. We have 2 large sliding windows in the living room by the dinette and above the couch. The sliders have a metal handle that is continually coming off when the kids are sliding them open. Looks like they are just attached with friction using a rubber seal. I am extremely nervous about putting too much pressure on the window by forcing the metal handles back on. A cracked or broken window would be disastrous as we continue the trip.

Any thoughts or recommendations to put those handles back on and keeping them on? The handles have little plastic levers for locking the windows closed, and they are crucial to keep the wind noise and rattling to a minimum when at highway speeds. I think I added a picture to the thread.

thanks, john
