Jim,

I see by your profile you live in or near Athol, ID.

The best place in the country to have your windows repaired is a place called Peninsula Glass in Vancouver, WA. They have a division called Motion Glass that makes and or repairs RV windows. Everyone I've talked to that had their windows made or repaired there has said they do an excellent job. Contact them at (360) 944-4446 or use this contact page: https://www.rvwindows.com/contact/

4 Causes of Fogged RV Window

How to Repair a Fogged RV Window

Yes, the original mfg should stand behind their products but often this is not the case. SeGi has been out of business a long time because of the poor quality seals they used between the glass of their dual pane windows. Luckily, you're not too terribly far from Motion Glass and I'm sure you'll be happy with the work they do for you. I'll bet they have a lot with hookups where you can overnight while they fix your windows. A friend of mine had them make new driver and passenger windows with the divider up near the top as opposed to right in his line of sight like he'd been dealing with. He was overjoyed with the work they did.

There are few places where you can get your windows repaired across the country. Hudson Fl, Searcy AR, Phoenix AZ and Vancouver WA are the places I heard of. Because I live near St Louis, I had mine repaired in Searcy AR on my way to the SW a few years ago. My windows still look great. If you let your windows go too long in the fogged condition, the glass can get etched making glass replacement necessary. You don't want to let that happen. Tempering a new piece of glass takes a while I've heard.

I have the same problem on my slide window. Seems like an inner pane has slipped. Interior and exterior panels are fine.
