While the window may still be under warranty, the seller should initiate the replacement. As called out earlier, it is defective. If both parties agreed to the need for a home inspection, any item cosmetic or not can be called to address as a condition of closing.
Personally, if not corrected or a full credit provided in escrow, I won't close and would start the paperwork to have my deposit returned in full. The seller has a lot to lose in a case like this.
