NHTSA Campaign 14E069000

EQUIPMENT:MOTORCYCLE:HELMETS

Issued by Tegol, Inc. · Reported Oct 21, 2014 · 15,871 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Tegol, Inc. (Tegol) is recalling certain Hawk GLD-900 Series helmets in all sizes. The affected helmets fail to meet the minimum safety requirements set forth in Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."

Consequence

Helmets that do not comply with minimum safety standards may not offer the protection intended by the safety standards and accordingly increase the risk of injury to the user in the event of a crash.

Remedy

Tegol will notify owners, and owners will be offered a full refund, free of charge. The recall began in October 2014. For more information about the recall, owners should contact Leather Up customer service at 1-866-371-0281.
