So, see for yourself. The rumored Skyline recall is totally false. Thank you for your opinions and messages.

yeah, if there ever was a recall, CJ would have told us rather than deny it. nice that RS responded to you. thanks for the confirmation

just out of curiousity, why was rumor of the Skyline being recalled? I goin to buy my a skyline for christmas... I am just wondering what caused that rumor to come about.

more people were complaining of skylines and returning/exchanging them than any other model. it's no biggie, just go ahead and get the skyline. even if you did happen to get a defective one, which i doubt since it's been so long since they put the xmods on the market that the "early revision" (the one wiht lower crystals) should have been all gone by now, either being enjoyed by people or had them shipped back the RS HQ, you could always exchange it, RS is very nice about their return/exchange policy
