If you or anyone you know uses an LS2 Rebellion helmet, it's time to stop. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration recently issued an alert showing that Allwin Powersports Corp. (APC) is recalling certain LS2 Rebellion helmets, sizes XL and XXL, because the helmets may lack proper impact protection—not exactly what you want to hear about the only thing protecting your noggin.
Due to the lack of proper impact protection, the two sizes of the LS2 Rebellion mentioned above fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets," and are being recalled.
If you have one of the affected helmets, APC will replace the helmet, free of charge. Owners may contact APC customer service at (630) 236-2366 or (888) 968-9888. The production dates for the recalled models are 12/15/2016 - 07/30/2025, and a whopping 3,714 units are potentially affected. The NHTSA ID number for this recall is 26E001000.
