This Is America's Most Embarrassing Automotive Engineering Failure
America has had an incredible, dynamic, and often quite innovative automotive industry for well over a century, but that rich automotive history also includes many missteps and some outright failures. There’s one engineering failure, though, that makes the Pinto gas tank placement and the Vega’s engine woes seem like mere blips: the persistent and depressing problem of terminal headliner sag.
I realize that droopy headliners aren’t exclusive to American cars (even Mercedes had these issues) but this problem was once extremely common—almost universal— on American cars made from the early 1970s into the early 1990s. That time span is a major part of why I’m hyperbolically calling this the Most Embarrassing Automotive Engineering Failure: it went on far, far too long.
