Refund for a photoRefund
The recalled helmets violate the mandatory safety standard for bicycle helmets because the helmets do not comply with the retention system, positional stability 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.
Stop using the helmet and cut its straps. Email a photo of the cut helmet that shows its production date to get your money back.
The percent beside each line is how sure the reader is of it. On Remedy the photo goes to Remedy instead, and is checked against this rule in seconds.
"destroy the helmets by cutting the straps" sets actions to other, because straps are a smaller part. "sending a photo of the destroyed product, showing the helmet's production date to walmart@victgoal.com" sets photo_required, must_show (whole_product, cut_or_damage, date_code) and contact_channel email. "full refund" sets remedy to full_refund with no fixed amount. Source: Claude draft, then self-check, claude-opus-5-5, extracted Nov 5, 2026.
Consumers should stop using the recalled helmets immediately and contact Victgoal for a full refund. Consumers will be asked to destroy the helmets by cutting the straps and then sending a photo of the destroyed product, showing the helmet’s production date to walmart@victgoal.com. Consumers should then dispose of the recalled product.

Claude’s first draft came from the Message Batches API (msgbatch_01SZvx3uWxvaPPzfuhTsWWMm); a self-check pass then reviewed it against the remedy text and a deterministic lint (msgbatch_01L7ossQ22gCyA7XoToxwJej).
The self-check kept every field of the draft. Tokens: draft 3,202 in, 363 out; check 3,748 in, 511 out.
