Sagging Window Shade

One of the window shades on my 2015 Maxx S has started sagging down a few inches! Any help in correcting this minor but irritating problem will be appreciated. I don't see any way to tighten the frame it sits in.

    When I turned the kitchen window upside down to swap the shade/screen position, I noticed a small black tab at the top center of the window.  The tab keeps the frame from sagging and falling forward into the kitchen (the window is on the curved front of the trailer).  I would put a small screw into the wall at the center of the window frame.  Hope this helps.

    The fix above is just for a sagging frame. I guess you meant the shade within the frame. I think Jenn had posted something on this topic.

    Thanks for the input. I am an old guy who grew up with house windows that had sashes, counter balances, making it easy to raise windows. The cords would break so we would use rods to hold the windows up. I just may go back to the bad old days on this one and find a nice rod to prop my shades up with.

    There's a couple threads about sagging front frames - Mine was and LG replaced it. Six months in and there's just a slight sag but hardly noticible. Sides are fine. Someone in a previous thread rivetted a thin metal strip to the top to strengthen it and I know that was passed on to the factory and they were looking into it.

    Mine has had a sag since I bought it. The thin metal strip seemed the best solution (have rivet gun from the popping rivets from the old popup!). It's on my "Roundtoit" list.
