The helmets fail to meet federal safety standards
Todson has issued a recall for its NerfBarrage bicycle helmets because they fail to meet federal guidelines for helmet safety. They were sold exclusively at Walmart.
The Consumer Product Safety Commission said the helmets can fail to protect the wearer in the event of a crash, posing a risk of head injury. There are no reported injuries so far.
This recall involves Nerf Barrage Youth bike helmets. The helmets have a blue/orange exterior, black straps, an orange buckle, and are size medium (M). NERF is printed in white lettering on the sides of the helmet. Model 6011 is printed on a label on the inside of the helmet.
The lot number (LOT#) and reference number (REF#) can be found on the same label on the inside of the helmet. Only helmets with LOT# BC01BJ01-200623 and REF# 5382-BL and LOT# BC01BJ01-111521 and REF# 4970-BL are included in this recall.
