I think I remember reading somewhere about someone using a needle and syringe to inject glue in the bubbles.  I thought that was genius.

My T@B dealer suggested using a syringe for horses (large) but then she is located in horse country.
I also remember seeing someone adding strips of wood across the ceiling in an older T@B.
I wonder if you could add a small ceiling light to one of the strips similar to the light in the new LG T@Bs?

In those types of situations, my father always used a big hypodermic needle and glue. I always considered my dad to be the ultimate handyman. Gotta use something fast setting so you can squirt and hold in place until it sets though.

If you can't find a needle and syringe at a farm supply, you can always go to the kitchen section in a store and find an injector for marinade (a little big, but the glue will close the hole).

Ours has this too. I am betting the installer either ran out of ceiling glue and use floor glue (linoleum) for the ceiling carpet or swapped out the ceiling glue for another glue by mistake.
There is absolutely no way in hell the glue would fail this consistently and spectacularly.
