Chineese Motorcycle Helmets Recalled


 Zhejiang Jixiang Motorcycle Fittings Co., Ltd. (Zhejiang) is recalling certain motorcycle half helmets, model JX-B210, sizes Large and XL, manufactured in 2008. During testing, the affected helmets failed to conform to the impact attenuation, penetration, labeling, and retention requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
Consequence:
 By wearing a noncompliant helmet, the user may not be adequately protected in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury.
Remedy:
 Zhejiang will recall the helmets. The recalled helmets are no longer produced by the manufacturer. Zhejiang does not have the end user information. As such, owner notifications will not be sent. Owners may contact their US agent, Precision Global Resource, LLC at 1-909-638-9040. A remedy plan has not been provided.
