[QUOTE="gklaum, post: 1205, member: 20"] I had posted in the past about my 2010 Equinox which I took delivery on 8/18/10. Within 2 weeks of taking delivery I noticed my headliner drooping (NO Sunroof). Today I brought to dealer to have the GM specified glue (Epoxy). Evidently the reason your headliner is drooping is becasue there are a series of small white plastic brackets about 3"x1" with a standoff that holds a round magnet. This bracket is glued to the underside of the headliner in various locations. The magnets hold the center potions of the headliner to the roof. What is happening is in the southern hot climates, on the hottest of hot days the glue softens and the plastic bracket separates from the headline. I imagine this can happen in any region but supposedly more common in the southern hot regions. Today the Dealership had the whole headliner apart. Seemed to be good when I left the dealer. Went back to work and within 2 hours the headliner was drooping again. Dealership is ordering a new headliner as of today. Others are having the same problems. Hopefully it will come faster than the ones who have posted their experiences. I agree this should be a recall. [/QUOTE]
