Description of the problem	I have a 2006 volkswagen beetle convertible that i bought about a year ago. The beetle is in excellent condition and has extremely low miles. It has been well taken care of to say the least. However, i have noticed a very strong odor that smells like crayons. The odor is so strong that my hair, clothes and skin smells like this scent. I have a special needs child and he coughs and sneezes the whole time while riding. Not to mention both of us get horrific headaches and our eyes water from the odor. I have no idea if this crayon smell is toxic or what fumes we are breathing in but it cannot be good from the side effects we are having from it. I have tried to sell it but no one will buy it because of the strong odor it has. I have had it professional cleaned, changed the cabin air filter etc and the smell is still there.
