NHTSA recall campaign

What was wrong
Defect
Fuel Helmets (Fuel) is recalling certain model SH-HHFL64 and SH-HHGL1 size small, SH-HHFL65 and SH-HHGL15 size medium, SH-HHGL16 and SH-HHFL66 size large, and SH-HHFL67 and SH-HHGL17 size extra large helmets. The strap that secures the helmet to the rider's head may fail in low or high temperatures. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
Risk
If the helmet strap fails to keep the helmet secured in the event of a crash, the rider has an increased risk of injury.
Manufacturer remedy
Fuel will replace the helmet, free of charge. The recall began July 7, 2018. Owners may contact Fuel customer service at 1-855-355-3835.
