Sakar International Dimensions Bluetooth Speaker Multi-Purpose Helmets
The notice says to stop using it — see below for what to do.
What’s wrong
The recalled helmets do not comply with the U.S. CPSC federal safety standard for bicycle helmets, posing a risk of head injury in a fall.
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 it looks like
Photos help. Identifiers decide. Appearance can vary by color, finish or packaging. Confirm the model number, date code or other identifier in the official notice.

What to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled helmets and contact Sakar for instructions on receiving a free replacement helmet. Consumers should not return the helmet to Walmart and should contact Sakar for a free replacement and to facilitate returns using prepaid postage packaging. Walmart will contact all known purchasers.
