What is wrong
Micro DOT Helmet Co. (Micro DOT) is recalling certain Blister and Twister original helmets, sizes XXS - XXL. The helmets may lack proper penetration protection. 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 protection increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
Micro DOT will replace the helmets, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 6, 2025. Owners may contact Micro DOT customer service at 1-817-478-0497.
