Atlas Chalet shingles defective
Starting around 2000-2007 many homes were roofed using Atlas Chalet shingles.
They were found to be defective and there was a class action suit. The manufacturer was ordered to pay out boatloads of money to repair/replace the shingles. Many homeowner were not aware so they did not file a claim. Insurance companies have been replacing these roofs all over the country. Perhaps these people having theirs replaced fall into that category. They will leak over time, they crack easily and the tar around the nails bubbles and pops leaving the home vulnerable to leaks and mold. Insurance. Companies would rather replace a roof than deal with internal water damage and mold which could be more expensive.
