More common is the strap attachment or harness comes loose or breaks.

As for replacements, if Wally-world helmets fit my head, I'd wear one.
I am the same way. After splitting a $300 Giro in half during a mishap, I buy my helmets mostly at Walmart. $30 and I have a comfortable helmet that will work the same.
