Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Sakar International is recalling about 33,100 multi-purpose helmets under the Tony Hawk, Credhedz Lizard, and Crayola Dry-Erase brands. These helmets do not comply with the positional stability and retention system requirements of the U.S. CPSC federal safety standard for bicycle helmets. If the helmet fails to stay in place or the straps fail during a crash, it may not protect the user from a head injury. No injuries have been reported, but consumers should immediately stop using these helmets and contact the manufacturer for a $30 gift card refund.

Risk

The recalled helmets fail to meet federal safety standards for stability and strap retention. In the event of a crash, the helmet could shift or come off, posing a serious risk of head injury to the user.
