Summary
New recall requirements for helmets, mattresses, bed rails, and chemical products mandate immediate consumer action including product destruction, refund or replacement, and compliance with safety standards such as positional stability, labeling, certification, flammability, and child-resistant packaging.
Why it matters
Sellers must ensure recalled products are removed from listings and comply with recall instructions to avoid legal liability and protect consumers from serious injury or death risks associated with non-compliant products.
Recommended action
Review all product listings for recalled items, remove or update listings accordingly, notify customers of recalls, and implement recall compliance procedures including product destruction and refund or replacement processes.
The recalled helmets violate the mandatory safety standard for bicycle helmets because they do not comply with the positional stability, labeling and certification requirements. The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a serious risk of injury or death due to head injury.
Consumers should stop using the helmets immediately and contact Favoto for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the recalled helmet by cutting the straps and write “Recalled” and email a photo of the destroyed helmet to [email protected].

The gum turpentine and mineral spirits contain turpentine and low-viscosity hydrocarbons, respectively, which must be in child-resistant packaging, as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The bottles are not child-resistant, posing a risk of serious injury or death from poisoning if the contents are swallowed by young children.
Consumers should secure the recalled bottles out of sight and reach of children immediately and contact Natural Pigments to receive a replacement product with child-resistant packaging or a refund. Consumers will be asked to submit a photo of the recalled product, provide contact information and confirm disposal of the contents before receiving a replacement product with child-resistant packaging or a refund.
