In cooperation with the Consumer Products Safety Commission (CPSC) and Canada, Kimpex has voluntarily recalled Rush and Kimpex Arrow II Ski Kits and Kimpex Rush and Kimpex Arrow II adaptor kits. The recalled kits replaced the skis on snowmobiles. The company sold them in red, green, yellow, white, black, and blue colorways, with “Kimpe” stamped on both sides of the snowmobile’s ski handles.
Consumers should immediately stop using snowmobiles equipped with the recalled Kimpex ski kits and adaptor kits, and contact a Kimpex dealer for a free repair kit.

The products were sold through Kimpex USA dealers nationwide and online at Kimpex.com and other websites from April 2022 through January 2025 for between $300 and $500 for the Kimpex Rush and Kimpex Arrow II Ski Kits and about $23 for the Ski Adaptor Kits.
