On January 13, 2023, Comoto Holdings, Inc. Issued a safety recall for certain BILT Vertex and Route helmets, which may not provide adequate impact protection in the event of a crash. This could increase a rider’s risk of a head injury in such a case.
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Safety Recall Report, approximately 18,980 helmets may be affected, which represents an estimated five percent of the population. The noncompliant helmets all suffered penetration test failures during independent testing to ensure U.S. Department of Transportation compliance.
