What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a safety-critical product (motorcycle helmet) that fails to meet federal safety standards for impact protection, posing a risk of personal injury in a crash, but no specific injuries or fatalities are reported in the source text.

Plain-English summary

Buy4easy Inc. is recalling approximately 7,392 TMS HY-809 motorcycle half-helmets in sizes S, M, L, and XL. These helmets were manufactured between March 20, 2012, and October 31, 2012. The recall addresses helmets that may insufficiently dampen impacts and may be missing or have incomplete manufacturing dates and purchaser instructions.

The affected helmets fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 218, "Motorcycle Helmets." Wearing a noncompliant helmet may leave the user inadequately protected in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury.

The recall began on May 6, 2015. Buy4easy will notify owners and offer a full refund. Owners may contact Buy4easy customer service at 1-626-388-9898. Owners may also contact the NHTSA Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 or visit www.safercar.gov.
