Sagging Hood Liner
Guys...the heat shield liner on the underside of my hood sags...I have tucked it and taped it with duct tape. That holds for a while but the heat gets to the tape and down it comes again. Anyone else dealt with this issue?

I haven't had any problems with my TL's headliner, but my wife had the same problem in her 2005 Mazda 6 due to the high humidity/heat here in Florida. We ended up taking it to an automotive upholstery shop that charged $120 to take it out, install new fabric, and reinstall the headliner.

^its a fire damper.
if a fire should start in your engine bay; the hood liner SHOULD dampen the fire.
butt, it doesnt always work as Ive seen some TL's catch on fire from faulty power steering.
power steering fluid leaks on to a hot catalytic converter and bye bye TL.
its important to get the power steering recall done.
