Shasta Revere RVs recalled due to labeling error

I also noticed that the Shasta link isn't working on the Forest River website anymore. Hope it's just on construction to change specs but the site we get re-directed to is: http://www.shastarving.com/

interesting, they state the SHT27BH but my 21FBS came with wrong tires size stickers as well. They must have fired the sticker man for all of this.

In clicking the link, I also noticed that Airstream has a recall. Can happen to those $80,000 units as well as a $20,000 unit.
