    Just noticed that an A-pillar plastic cover (on the right side) is coming apart from headliner. Inspected it further and discovered that the headliner is somewhat separating from the roof, so much that I can stick my fingers in there. Nothing like that on the left side. It seems that there are no clips that that I could push back in, it just hangs freely. Anyone else experienced anything like that? I think I'd have to schedule an appointment to the dealer

    My a-piller plastic started to come off awhile back. I took it apart and discovered that when the covering was being put in the factory bent the male-end of the clip. So the clip didn't go into the female-end there for the plastic a-piller covering didn't sit flush.
    So I bent it back and knocked it back into place. Took me less than 15 minutes for both side.

    Got my car back from the dealer today, I must say I am so glad I did not attempt to fix it myself. It turned out that there was a bunch of other things needed attention. Take a look at the repair summary:

    All in all I am very satisfied with my dealer, especially my SA/manager who is always polite, very well spoken, humble, very good guy all around. He even offered me a brand new Passat loaner before I even had a chance to ask how long will it be.
