Plain-English summary

Tucker Rocky Distribution is recalling certain Speed and Strength SS200, SS300, and SS400 motorcycle helmets. The affected units were manufactured between February 1, 2013, and December 7, 2013, and are available in sizes XS through XXL.

The recall is being issued because these helmets fail to meet certain performance requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218, which governs motorcycle helmet safety. As a result, a rider may not be adequately protected in the event of a crash, which increases the risk of serious injury.

The remedy for this recall is still under development. The recall began on March 25, 2015. Owners may contact Tucker Rocky customer service at 1-817-258-9247 for more information. Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153) or visit www.safercar.gov.
