Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
Helmets that do properly protect the wearer’s head can increase the risk of injury to the wearer in the event of a crash. Missing labeling information reduces the user’s possibility of identifying the helmet in the event of a safety recall.
Tegol, Inc.
(Tegol) is recalling certain Outlaw Slim-G Series motorcycle helmets, part number GLD-12-510-511, in all sizes, manufactured March 30, 2013, to June 5, 2013.
The affected helmets may not adequately protect the wearer’s head in the event of an impact, and an object may penetrate the helmet.
Additionally, these helmets may not be labeled properly.
As such, these helmets fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 218, “Motorcycle Helmets.”

- Which ones, by part or lot: the recall’s report on NHTSA’s site gives them where the maker did; this file gives part numbers only where its maker listed them.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
