Default Filter Shell - recall possible

don't know how reliable.&nbsp\\; Just was at my local dealer and salesman told me there is a recall on the filter shell 11/07 build date and earlier.&nbsp\\; He said he found out this morning.&nbsp\\; he pointed to an EG Standard that's been on the floor since November&nbsp\\;with a pink sticker on the headlight - he said the little pink sticker meant it had yet to have the new shell installed.&nbsp\\; I don't have an 08 so didn't ask for proof or anything.
