WASHINGTON (BRAIN) — About 6,500 Wemfg children's multi-purpose bike helmets are being recalled because they don't comply with positional stability, impact labeling, and federal certification requirements.
No incidents nor injuries have been reported. The helmets were sold exclusively on Amazon in size small and in the following colors: blue/pink, green/blue, green/blue/purple, pink/blue/green, pink/purple/pink, pink/yellow/green, purple/pink/blue, and purple/pink/yellow.
They have black padding, black straps, and a black and red buckle. The helmets have a black and red plastic knob at the back for fit adjustment. The model "MD-710-S" is printed on a white label on the inside of the helmet. They were sold on Amazon.com from April 2024 through July 2024 for between $26 and $32.
Consumers should stop using the recalled helmets and contact Wemfg for a full refund. To receive a refund, consumers should destroy the helmet by cutting off the straps, photograph the detached straps, and send it with their Amazon order number to the recalling firm by email. After submitting proof of destruction, consumers should dispose of the helmet. Wemfg and Amazon are contacting all known purchasers directly.
