Check whether your vehicle is affected and follow the manufacturer’s recall instructions — the repair is free.
By wearing a noncompliant helmet, the user may not be adequately protected in the event of a crash, increasing their risk of injury.
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.
Since the helmet purchasers are unknown, a notification was placed on the Stealth website on May 4, 2016. Retailers will exchange the helmets for a different Stealth helmet or offer a refund, free of charge. Owners may contact Soaring at 1-425-656-0683.
