NHTSA recall campaign
16E080000
What was wrong
Defect
Ivolution Sports Inc. (Ivolution) is recalling certain IV2 JX-SKY 3/4 open face helmets manufactured October 16, 2015, to November 12, 2015. The affected helmets have a detachable Skull Mohawk portion that was affixed with a metal screw instead of a plastic screw, preventing the Mohawk from easily detaching in the event of a crash. As such, these helmets fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
Risk
If the Mohawk feature of the helmet does not detach in the event of a crash, the rider could be at an increased risk of neck injury.
Manufacturer remedy
Ivolution will notify owners, and provide a full refund for all returned helmets. The recall began on September 13, 2016. Owners may contact Ivolution customer service at 1-951-852-6327.
