#351 of 355 Roof and door liner by universeman Nov 01, 2009 (2:20 pm)
I have a 2001 new beetle and during this (Florida) summer, the roofliner has detached from the roof and now hangs down about 4 inches. The grey plastic liner on the doors also is detaching. Is there a fix for this?
#352 of 355 Large bubbles in paint on door panels by universeman Nov 01, 2009 (2:23 pm)
I have a 2001 new Beetle and, over the last year, a large bubble (almost 2 inches in diameter) has formed in the paint on the driver side door. It is getting bigger! Is there a fix for this?

Replying to: momin87 (Sep 06, 2007 6:37 pm) You can contact me about the class actions we have had 11 window problems most requiring a new regulator we have also had the airbag light come on because of bad sensor in the seat belt clip we also had the check engine light come on and it was the temp sensor and a turbo valve cover that were bad that time we have also had other multiple problems with the top and others that I can provide information on. Now the real big bomb on all of this is we have a 2004 beetle like the rest here but ours only has 34700.00 miles this many problems and it has less than 35000 miles on it. Now we have a new problem that is not covered in any way by VW we replace the tires on the car about 6wks ago 4 brand new ones and with in 6 weeks they showed wear like needing rotation so I took the car back to the shop that did the tires at the time on the new tires being put on they asked if the car was pulling to one side or the other or if we thought alignment was required and we said no and they said that when the new tires were put on they test drove it and didn't think alignment was necessary at the time now about 6 weeks later the car is at dealership for window work again and other stuff and they notate the wear on the tires so I went to tire guy and he checks the car and finds the camber is -2.14 degrees off he feels that with it that much off and it can't be adjusted into proper alignment that it came from the factory that way. Of course they are not going to do anything about it I am not done talking to them yet we will see what happens. So contact me if you need info about about window problems and count us in.

In addition, we had to get a new catalytic converter. Luckily this item was still under warranty, but really, I have never even heard of anyone needing a new CC on a car with only 45,000 mi on it.   BUT ITS GONE NOW!!!! We got rid of it, which is very exciting. (airbag light was still on when we traded it)
