Broken window crank 2016 Bighorn (pic)

The window crank has failed on our camper, the metal sleeve (?) comes out when I close the window and goes in when I open it.
Is there a fix or do I need to get a replacement crank?
If a replacement is needed does anyone have a part number.
Thanks

It’s a replace it fix. The one on the rear window of our BH did that. I ordered from heartland parts
 
Thank you for the info. One more question, in the pic the part that the crank arms attach to has come loose, any recommendations on what I should use to reattach to the window?

Mine looks like it is aluminum extruded angle I think spot welded on, may a fine weld might work also a rivet from the outside to attach it?

I drilled out the pop rivets then attached the replacement with 2 short machine bolts and lock nuts
I’ll get you a photo

BTW-if you shorten the vinyl stop strip the window will open further

Machine bolts

In the red circle is a vinyl stop strip. Shorten it to increase the length of the window opening
