To the uninitiated, what are these overlap strips?

Unfortunately it's not an unusual problem and a search of this site will throw up several posts on the subject with suggestions to how to remedy. We resorted to the heavy duty overlap wallpaper glue/paste.

They are strips used to cover joins on the wallcovering material and they regularly come unstuck

Ahh, thanks. 
Don’t think I have them in my PVC...unless they haven’t started peeling off just yet!!

We had these strips replaced by the dealer when our Broadway FB was about 2 years old. They started peeling off again soon afterwards.
We sold the van when it was 3 years old and I believe the new owner had them replaced again and again they started peeling off.
I don’t know what the solution is, but it seems the glue isn’t very sticky!
