Smith is recalling about 7,000 Quantum ski and snowboard helmets (plus 1,000 sold in Canada) because the buckle can unexpectedly disengage while in use. This defect poses a risk of head injury if the helmet falls off during a fall or collision. These helmets were sold in various color combinations including matte black, white, red, blue, green, and gray between October 2016 and July 2017. Consumers should immediately stop using these helmets and contact Smith for a free repair.
The helmet's buckle mechanism can fail and come undone, which prevents the helmet from staying securely on the user's head during an impact, significantly increasing the risk of serious head injury.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled helmets and contact Smith for instructions on returning the helmet, free of cost, to Smith for a free repair.
