Oculus Issues Recall For Quest 2 Padding


Here’s how to get your free silicone facial interface.

Facebook announced this week a voluntary recall for Oculus Quest 2 “removable foam facial interface.” That’s technical talk for the foam padding that comes with the Quest 2. The good news is you don’t actually have to mail anything in. In fact if you don’t want to you don’t need to do anything at all.

The recall is related to a small number of users who had irritation problems where the Quest 2 rests on the skin.

Oculus is conducting a voluntary recall of the Oculus Quest 2 removable foam facial interface in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). We are doing so in response to reports from a very small percentage of users who have experienced skin irritation where the foam portion of the facial interface rests on the skin. The safety and comfort of every customer is our top priority. As part of this commitment we are now offering a free silicone cover to Quest 2 headset and Quest 2 Fit Pack owners.

To get the free silicone cover, just check out the recall page. Log in to your Oculus account and you’ll see the button below under your devices list. Facebook has temporarily halted sales of the Quest 2 due to this recall.
