Consumer Description

THE HEADLINER IS PULLING AWAY FROM THE REAR PILLARS. BEING THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE I DO NOT SPEND TIME IN THE BACK SEAT. MY DAUGHTER IS CURRENTLY LEARNING TO DRIVE SO ON A RECENT ERRAND I WAS SITTING IN THE BACK SEAT AND LOOKED UP TO SEE THE HEADLINER COMPLETELY PULLING AWAY AND COMING DOWN FROM THE ROOF OF THE CAR AND DOME LIGHT. WHEN I GOT BACK HOME, I DID SOME INTERNET RESEARCH AND FOUND A MULTITUDE OF WEBSITES, FORUMS, ETC. WITH PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. HERE ARE JUST A FEW OF THE ADDRESSES THAT I FOUND: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/VOLKSWAGEN/JETTA/2006/ACCESSORIES-INTERIOR/HEADLINER_SEPARATING_FROM_CEILING.SHTML HTTP://RICH-BLOG.BLOGSPOT.COM/2010/10/2006-VOLKSWAGEN-JETTA-TDI-HEADLINER-PROBLEMS.HTML HTTP://FORUMS.VOLKSWAGENVORTEX.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?5104886-SAGGING-FALLING-HEADLINER-WARRANTY-SUCCESS-STORIES-PLEASE HTTP://WWW.CARS-GUIDE.COM/VOLKSWAGEN-FORUM/2006-VOLKSWAGEN-JETTA-HEADLINER-T4941.HTML ADDITIONALLY, I PERSONALLY KNOW ANOTHER 2006 JETTA OWNER IN SCHENECTADY, NY WITH THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. AS THE HEADLINER FALLS, IT IS CREATING A VISUAL DISTRACTION AS WELL AS IMPAIRING MY FIELD OF VISION TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. *TR
