Over 200,000 helmets have been recalled due to a risk of head injury.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall, saying that the recall involves 509 helmets and 509 for Polaris helmets. The CPSC said 509 was recalling the helmets because “the recalled helmets fail to provide sufficient protection in the event of a crash, posing a risk of head injury.”
