A quick learner says:
My window got disconnected from this part in the track and won't stay open or tilt out. Can this be replaced? They are patriot windows built by Ryan Homes

The white plastic part is called a pivot shoe. However, these have nothing to do with keeping the window up. If your spiral balance disconnected from it, odds are it unwound a little. Spiral balances are unique in that you can turn the spiral shaped rod to give it tension. You can use a tool like our 75-006 to give it 2 or 3 turns. That should give it back some tension and allow your windows to work properly. See the media guides below for more information.
