Did you receive a notice from Bell Sports? Did you receive a mail about a class action on the settlement to resolve claims about the Bell Sports announcing recall for Giro Merit Bicycle Helmets due to risk of head injury? This review will help you partake in the class action settlement after confirming the authenticity of the mail.
What Is Bell Sports Class Action Settlement?
Bell Sports has recalled more than 15,000 bike helmets as they can fail to protect users in a crash.
The recall was published to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website on June 8. It applies to about 15,000 Giro Merit bicycle helmets sold in the United States and about 1,465 sold in Canada.
What Is This Class Action All About?
According to the recall, the helmets do not comply with CPSC federal safety standards for bicycle helmets.
“The helmets can fail to protect in the event of a crash, posing a risk of head injury,” the recall states.
No injuries have been reported so far, the company said. Giro is not currently facing legal action over the recall, but Top Class Actions follows recalls closely as they sometimes end in class action lawsuits. Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Giro Merit helmets and contact Giro for a free replacement helmet or a full refund, the company said.
The recalled helmets were sold at Epicenter Cycling, Freewheel Bike West Bank, Velotech and other stores nationwide, online at Giro.com, Backcountry.com and other websites from Sept. 2021 through Jan. 2023 for about $220.
In April, JBM International issued its own recall for about 5,300 adult bike helmets as they can fail to protect users during a crash.
