What is wrong
H&H Sports Protection (H&H) is recalling certain VCAN V528 helmets size XL manufactured April 1, 2008, to October 9, 2014. The helmet retention systems failed during high temperature testing. Also, the required labeling may not be found on the helmets. Thus, these helmets do not meet the requirements of Federal Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218 "Motorcycle helmets."
What can happen
Failed helmet restraints can increase the risk of serious personal injury to the occupant.
The fix
Recall repairs are free of charge.
H&H will notify affected owners, retailers and dealers, and H&H will reimburse the full purchase price for the helmets. The recall began February 20, 2015. Owners may contact H&H customer service at 1-858-680-8226 or at OP@HHsportsprotection.com.

A recall means the maker found a safety problem and offers a free fix; it does not mean every unit has the problem. Units affected are as reported by the company. Popular models sell more and so have more recalls and complaints. Official public data; texts are shortened. A dealer can tell whether a single vehicle still needs the repair.
