Headliner Woes

The inside frame of my headliner continues to pop out from around the rear window, causing the fabric to hang. It seems to happen more often as I raise and lower my roof. Has anyone experienced this? How can I get this fixed? I'm still under my bumper to bumper warranty if that makes a difference!

This is a known "glitch". It's an easy DIY. The fabric has alumminum clips which come lose :-( If you feel along the bottom edge of the top (where the liner meets the body/interior of the top) you should feel a metal strip. Gently pull the liner down and snap it back along the strip. It's kind of similar to a ziploc bag. I had to do this once or twice when I first bought the car new, but it has stayed put ever since. I haven't needed the revised clips.
