MW Company is recalling approximately 260 MOMO Quick Release Steering Wheel Adapters designed for race cars. These adapters, sold in all-black and black-with-red color schemes, can inadvertently activate and cause the steering wheel to suddenly detach from the steering column while the vehicle is in motion. This defect renders the vehicle impossible to steer, posing a severe risk of a crash. The adapters were sold at various specialty automotive retailers and online from July 2018 through May 2019 for about $375.
The quick release mechanism can engage unexpectedly, causing the steering wheel to come off in the driver's hands while racing. This eliminates all steering control, which could lead to a high-speed collision, serious injury, or death.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled steering wheel adapters and return them to MW Company for a full refund. Those who purchased the recalled steering wheel adapters directly from MW Company online will be contacted by the company.
Recalled quick release steering wheel adaptors in black and black-with-red with “MOMO” printed on top.
