Can you post a picture or at the minimum explain better whats going on? If it'* the fabric pulling away from the underlayment, some rubber cement will stick it back.

The headliner underlayment can degrade over time and especially if it'* been water logged. The underlayment is semi rigid and will for the most part stay up on it'* own, but may need a little assist with some rubber cement. Let'* see what kind of pictures you can post on the damage and will take it from there.

Here you go....

Separation toward the front:

Looking toward the back:



Ratty visors (living in the hot, hot South sucks - but good ones can still be found - or some kind person can sell her some good ones )

Steve...I think your headliner is done! If it was just coming apart and still basically intact you could probably get away with repairing it.

https://www.1stpontiacparts.com/partscat.html has new headliners for $269.00.
