THE HEADLINER ON THE ROOF IN MY 2008 CHRYSLER CROSSFIRE HAS DETACHED COMPLETELY EXCEPT FOR THE SIDE AND REAR COMPARTMENT UPPER EDGES AND HAS SUNKEN/FALLEN IN FRONT OF ME AND MY PASSENGERS FIELD OF VIEW COVERING OUR EYES AND RESTING ON OUR HEADS PLUS BLOCKING MY DRIVERS REAR VIEW MIRROR TO THE BACK WINDOW FIELD OF VIEW AS WELL. THIS IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY HAZARD AND APPARENTLY CAUSED FROM A POOR QUALITY APPLICATION OF HEADLINER GLUE/DECOMPOSING FABRIC. THIS CAR IS KEPT IN PRISTINE SHAPE AND COVERED ALMOST CONTINUOUSLY. THERE HAVE BEEN NO EXTERNAL FORCES, MISTREATMENT, NOR CHEMICAL APPLICATIONS CAUSING THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. IT OCCURRED WHILE IT WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY, NOT ON THE PUBLIC STREET DURING A TWO-WEEK PERIOD OF NON-USE. I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE IT AT THIS TIME.

WHILE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE I WAS TOLD THE REAR WINDOW OF MY CONVERTIBLE FELL OUT AND WAS LAYING ON THE REAR SHELF. WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING CHRYSLER COULD DO ABOUT THIS. SEEMS THIS IS QUITE COMMON WITH THE TOPS. A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE 2005 MODELS BUT SEEMS THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. WAS ALSO TOLD TO HAVE THE TOP REPLACED ($2500) AND KEEP THE RECEIPT IF THERE IS A RECALL I WOULD BE REIMBURSED. THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. HOW MANY DOES IT TAKE?
