Product Safety Warning Details
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Chepei 49cc Kids Gas Mini ATVs. The youth ATVs are missing a tail lamp, stop lamp, and all required safety reflectors, which reduces visibility of the ATV to other vehicles, posing a collision hazard. The mechanical suspension fails to comply with ATV safety requirements, posing a deadly crash hazard. The handlebars also fail to comply with ATV safety requirements, posing a deadly laceration hazard if the child rider’s body or head impacts the handlebars. Additionally, the ATVs fail to comply with other mandatory safety requirements for ATVs intended for children 6 years of age and older, such as missing required labeling. ATVs that fail to meet the mandatory safety regulations pose a risk of serious injury or death.
According to CPSC’s latest data, Off-Highway Vehicles (OHVs), including ATVs, are annually associated with an average of more than 850 deaths and an estimated 102,000 emergency department-treated injuries. (2024 Report of Deaths and Injuries Involving Off-Highway Vehicles with More than Two Wheels).
Additionally, these youth ATVs lack a federally mandated, CPSC-approved ATV action plan, which is required for any manufacturer or distributor to import into or distribute in the United States any newly assembled or unassembled ATV. Federal law requires ATV action plans to ensure that the industry promotes ATV safety, including rider training, dissemination of safety information, age recommendations and other safety measures.
