No, but I've never put in a claim for a helmet, either. If they say your
helmet doesn't need replacing, though, make sure you ask for the x-ray
so you can verify that the crushable foam has not, in fact, been
compressed anywhere. Personally, the only folks I'd trust to declare a
helmet safe for use after a crash is the factory, but YMMV...
