  • Only recall on our MH was fuel tank strap issue several years ago. Repaired at once and no further issues. Good idea to keep track though.
  • This never is a popular topic here, although with the thousands of recalls that are out there you would think it would be…

    This is about the same response past threads had about recalls, unless it included a rant… even then the rant became more important than the recall… I suppose not knowing might be better sometimes…

    Oh well…
