The helmets may not adequately protect the wearer in the event of a head impact during a motorcycle crash. Additionally, they do not list the month and year of manufacturer as required by law.
A helmet that does not adequately protect the wearer from an impact in a crash can increase the risk of injury.
What to do
HCI will notify owners, and will provide replacement helmets or give the consumer a credit for a replacement helmet, free of charge.
The recall is expected to begin in August 2019.
