The guy at Adventure Leisure told me they have been instructed by Hymer to change all seals regardless. He also said he hasn't seen any existing seals that had a problem.

That's a Big Call. Is that the instruction that Al have had as well?

I don't think so. Al have assured us (twice) that our Troll (registered May 2018) is not on the list for recall.

Not really. If a manufacturer issues a recall to a particular batch of something, they won't bugger about checking whether each unit is actually affected. It isn't cost effective.

Apart from anything else, if you've got to take it to bits to check, it makes much more sense to do the modification while you're there.

And if you're the subject of a recall like this it makes no sense to ignore it because you think the seals look okay yourself.

As Mr Motters said earlier, if you ignore the recall and it springs a leak it's your look out.

If it leaks after you've taken it in for the dealer to change the seals, it's Hymer's.

That's a much better position to be in.
