During testing, the shell of the affected motorcycle helmets fractured and the liner split thereby failing to meet the penetration and retention requirements. Additionally, the helmet label does not meet the DOT standard. As such, these helmets fail to meet the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
The wearer of this helmet may not be properly protected in the event of crash, increasing their risk of injury.
612 units are affected.
