I wouldn't be a bit concerned about a missing RVIA sticker. For all we know, the previous owner removed it. I don't think you can ever come up with an incident where not having the sticker caused anyone any legal problems. I believe it is a voluntary organization and carries no legal weight. Similar to the Energy Star certification on appliances. It is possible that a RV park would use the lack of an RVIA certification as a reason to exclude an undesirable rig, but that would happen with a home-built rig, not a mass produced RV.
As for the ladder, I have heard from several of our guests that manufacturers are eliminating ladders from the production runs. If you look at a standard ladder at home depot, the dozen or so warning stickers will give you the reason why. Some dufus has probably sued a manufacturer when they fell of an ice covered rung during a snowstorm. No ladder, no liability.
