Yep, mine was the kitchen side. It took 2 replacements of whole side window before it was resolved. Water used to run down into cupboard.
There are two problems, the rubber seal doesn't do a brilliant job. So there's a couple of drains on the inside in the groove that the window slides in. On the first two windows I had these drains were faulty and leaked into the van rather than out (they have outlets outside between the glass and bodywork).

I took mine in today to be checked out, on picking it up they informed me there was a tear in the rubber so they've changed the whole window. I will need to give it the water test in the morning as it was dark when I got home.
 
Silicone grease usually does the trick on the seal as long as drains clear . I had a new galley window an passenger front in the spring after they were smashed in France . £1500 .
