Winshield problems

I am having an issue with my windshields. I was on a trip and a whistling noise started. The gasket was ripped at the top left corner. I found a shop in Show Low AZ and they reset both sides but I think they did it improperly. I made it about an hour on my way home and the same issue arose. I was able to get home but both windshields almost fell out. I now have to find someone to reset them and I have to purchase a new gasket. Any advice? I may have caused the issue by not using the levelers correctly but one of the previous owners had the same issue. It is a 2002 Dutch star 35' gas

Your coach was made to have the windshields installed with just a gasket. Now days they use a gasket on most, but also glue them in.

I would locate new gaskets and then an RV specific installer reinstall the glass and glue it in this time. Near me there is a mobile service where the guy has a flatbed truck that he backs right up to the front of the coach and does the install from the bed of the truck.

You may need to call your local RV dealer and see who they use.
