What’s wrong
A helmet that fails to meet the safety requirements can increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash.
The Recall Registry rates this worth checking — we found nothing in the notice describing a specific injury. A recall covers only the versions, UPCs or date codes it names, so check those against yours.
What to do
H&H will notify owners and will either replace or provide a refund for the helmet, free of charge. The recall began on April 20, 2017. Owner's may contact H&H Sports Protection at 1-626-444-0107.
