NHTSA campaign 22E089000 · 2,362 units potentially affected · filed Oct 18, 2022
What's wrong
Comoto Holdings, Inc. (Comoto) is recalling certain Bilt Grommet Youth and Grommet Bolt Youth helmets with part numbers BLH137 and BLH138; in sizes SY, MY, and LY. The helmet 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."
Why it matters
A helmet that does not provide adequate impact protection increases the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix
Comoto will replace the helmet with a compliant BILT model helmet, free of charge, or provide credit to replace the helmet. Owner notification letters were mailed December 1, 2022. Owners may contact Comoto's customer service at 1-800-292-5343.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.nhtsa.gov.
