So far, all you have said is that there is bracket that commonly fails. Presumably one that is holding this panel in place. If that is the only information you have, I would not conclude that a bracket failure was the immediate cause of the panel separation - because all of the screws are missing. Although I might guess that a bracket problem triggered the maintenance that left the panel with most or all of its screws missing.

But you seem to be convinced otherwise, and perhaps justly so. That would mean that you have other evidence that you have not shared. Perhaps you have seen other photos, or the bracket itself, or you know some other detail of the previous panel bracket issues.

Whatever it is, can you fill us in? At least in broad terms? Otherwise we are left with your assertion and the suspicion that you are misinterpreting whatever that additional evidence is.
