What's wrong?
The dinette table in the 2015-2016 Shasta Airflyte is designed to sit securely between the dinette benches when it is lowered onto its support leg. In that lowered position, the bench opening and table edges give the tabletop enough resting surface to stay level while people use the dinette or converted sleeping area. The support leg handles part of the load, but the surrounding bench structure also has to hold the table in place.
On affected Airflyte trailers, the table does not have enough support at the bench opening. The issue traces to manufacturing variation, including an undersized table, an opening between the benches that is too wide, or both. When the table is lowered, too little edge remains on the surrounding structure, so the tabletop can shift, lose support, and fall.
There is no warning sign before failure. The table can look properly positioned until weight or movement exposes the lack of support.
Who's affected?
The same recreational vehicle/trailer equipment component is listed for both model years.
| 2015 Shasta Airflyte | Recreational vehicle/trailer |

| 2016 Shasta Airflyte | Recreational vehicle/trailer |
| Units affected | 1,736 |
| Field incidents | NHTSA has logged no field incidents to date. |
The year and model narrow the scope, but the VIN decides. Check your VIN to confirm whether your specific trailer is included.
What's the safety risk?
Without adequate support, the dinette table can fall between the benches without warning and injure someone nearby. Until the support legs are installed, keep weight off the table and use the dinette cautiously. Repair is free at any franchised Shasta dealer.
What should I do?
- Check your VIN to confirm your 2015-2016 Shasta Airflyte is included in this recall.
- Contact a franchised Shasta dealer to schedule the free support-leg installation that keeps the lowered dinette table supported between the benches.
- Bring the recall notice if you have it. If not, reference recall number 16V218 when you call.
- Keep the dinette table in its raised position until the support-leg repair is complete.
What happens at the repair
At the dealer, a Shasta technician installs two new support legs for the dinette table so the lowered table has proper support. The recall repair is free, and parts and labor are covered. The manufacturer has a general reimbursement plan on file for this campaign, so owners who already paid for a related dinette table support repair should ask Shasta service how to submit repair documentation for review.
