What is up with all the "soft touch" speaker like cloth on the interior that attracts lint like

?

I've only had the car for two weeks and I am already obsessed about it!

p.s., OK, I obviously can't spell based on my post title!

your seats are cloth? I thought leather was standard?

No, not the seats.

It's the cloth on the A pillars and other surfaces.

Drives me wild!

hmmm, I haven't noticed they collect dirt and what not, will keep an eye on it. I would normally make a rude comment and say hey its a Chrysler what do you expect. Can't say that anymore as they have really stepped up the game.

Fixed the title. I keep one of those lint rollers handy in the garage just to be able to remove stuff from the pillars and headliner.

Thanks for the title fix.

Guess i'll just have to have the lint roller available as well.

What are you doing to get lint/dirt on the headliner?
Ive had my 300 since 2011 and have not experienced this problem. If you have the black interior i imagine this has something to do with it. I will take MADDOGs
advice and use a lint roller._

don't ask him about the dirty footprints on the headliner, Patdow1.

LOL, footprints on the headliner brings back the good old days!

My issue seems more to be the cloth on the pilers and the black fuzzy weatherstrip around the doors. They both seem to catch any airborne stuff.

Now don't get me wrong, my car is not dirty and I am not dragging in lots of stuff. I just have a decent case of OCD that makes me notice the smallest spec and it tends to get my focus.

I enter my Corvette in local shine & show events and can usually pick up first place. I attribute it to my OCD. Gives me a win and gives me a release!
