Nexx recall: Equipment
What is wrong
Nexxpro-Fabrica de Capacetes, S.A. (Nexxpro) is recalling certain X.R2 motorcycle helmets, part number 01XR22312455100M, in size M. Due to a manufacturing error, the helmets may not adequately protect the wearer in the event of a head impact during a crash. As such, these helmets fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard number 218, "Motorcycle Helmets."
What could happen
A helmet that does not provide adequate impact protection increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
Nexxpro will notify owners and replace the helmets, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed beginning on June 30, 2023. Owners may contact Nexxpro customer service at 1-800-461-1226.
