December 2025
December 18, 2025 – CPSC announced the recall of about 1,900 AMP MP2 Smart Fitness Machines because the adjustable arm may not lock properly and can swing unexpectedly. The agency warned that the malfunction can create a risk of laceration or other serious injury.
[1]
December 18, 2025 – Amp Fit said consumers should stop using affected machines and schedule a free inspection and repair. The repair is performed at the consumer’s residence and involves replacing a component within the shoulder cap of the locking mechanism so the lock can fully engage.

What Is the AMP Fitness Machine Recall?
The recall involves the MP2 model of the AMP Smart Fitness Machine, a wall-mounted resistance-training system. The device uses an adjustable mechanical arm to provide resistance for full-body strength exercises. The AMP MP2 is also covered in the
Smart Fitness Machine recall overview.
The machine integrates with Amp Fit’s digital training platform and is designed to support different movements by repositioning the arm. Because the arm must remain securely locked during exercise, a failure in the locking mechanism can expose the user to sudden movement.
CPSC recall number 26-150 covers about 1,900 affected machines.
What Is Wrong With the AMP MP2 Fitness Machine?
The recalled machine’s adjustable arm may not lock properly. If the locking mechanism does not fully engage, the arm can swing suddenly while the user is exercising or positioning the equipment.
An unexpected movement can cause the arm or an attached component to strike the user’s head, shoulder, torso, or another body area. The resulting injury can depend on the arm’s position, the resistance setting, and where the user is standing when the failure occurs.
How Many AMP Fitness Machine Injuries Were Reported?
Amp Fit received 10 reports of the arm failing to lock properly. CPSC states that the incidents resulted in lacerations to the head and bruising to the shoulder and other parts of the body.
The public recall notice does not provide a separate count for each type of injury or describe the medical treatment received in every incident.
The incident total should therefore be treated as 10 reported locking failures involving injuries, rather than as 10 head lacerations specifically.
Why Can a Swinging Fitness Machine Arm Cause Serious Injury?
The MP2 uses a rigid adjustable arm that is intended to remain fixed during resistance exercise. If the locking mechanism releases or does not fully engage, the arm can move unexpectedly toward the user.
A sudden impact may cause cuts, bruises, or other traumatic injuries depending on the point of contact. Injuries to the head can be especially concerning because an impact can cause both an open wound and underlying trauma.
What Is a Laceration?
A laceration is a cut or tear through the skin. MedlinePlus explains that deeper cuts can affect muscles, tendons, nerves, blood vessels, or other underlying tissues and may require medical treatment.
[3]
Large or deep wounds may require stitches or staples, particularly when bleeding is difficult to control or the edges of the wound cannot be closed normally. Head wounds may also bleed heavily because the scalp contains many blood vessels.
Which AMP Fitness Machine Is Recalled?
The recall applies to the AMP MP2 Smart Fitness Machine. CPSC describes it as a wall-mounted strength-training device that uses an adjustable arm and integrates with Amp Fit’s digital app platform.
Consumers should confirm that their machine is the MP2 model and follow Amp Fit’s recall instructions rather than assuming every AMP-branded fitness device is affected.
Where Were the Recalled AMP Machines Sold?
The recalled fitness machines were sold online through Ampfit.com from January 2025 through August 2025. They sold for approximately $1,800.
The affected machines were imported by Amp Fit Inc. of Middletown, Delaware and manufactured in China.
What Did Amp Fit Say About the Recall?
Amp Fit’s recall notice states that the company discovered that the arm on the MP2 model may not lock properly. The company says it contacted customers with potentially affected units and asked them to stop using the machines until inspection and repair could be completed.
[2]
Amp Fit also says it proactively contacted affected customers to schedule repairs. Those statements describe the company’s recall response and do not determine the cause of any particular injury.
What Is the AMP MP2 Recall Remedy?
Consumers should stop using recalled AMP MP2 machines and contact Amp Fit to schedule a free inspection and repair at their residence.
An authorized technician will replace a component located inside the shoulder cap of the locking mechanism. CPSC says the replacement is intended to help ensure that the locking mechanism fully engages.
Consumers should not continue exercising on an affected machine while waiting for the repair.
Who May Be Affected?
People who purchased an AMP MP2 Smart Fitness Machine through Ampfit.com during the affected sales period may have a recalled unit.
Users who experienced unexpected arm movement, a locking failure, a head strike, laceration, bruising, or another injury may want to preserve information identifying the machine and documenting what occurred.
What Evidence May Matter in an AMP Fitness Machine Claim?
The machine’s condition and locking mechanism may be important when evaluating how an injury occurred.
- The AMP MP2 machine and adjustable arm
- Photographs or video of the locking mechanism
- Purchase and installation records
- Recall inspection or repair documentation
- Photographs of the injury
- Medical records documenting lacerations, bruising, or other injuries
If an injury occurred before repair, consumers may want to document the machine and locking mechanism before potentially relevant components are replaced.
Who May Be Liable for an AMP Fitness Machine Injury?
Potential liability depends on the circumstances and applicable state law. Manufacturers, importers, distributors, component suppliers, or other companies involved in supplying an allegedly defective exercise machine may potentially be evaluated after an injury.
Possible legal theories may include defective design, manufacturing defects, inadequate warnings, negligence, breach of warranty, or other product-liability claims. A claimant generally must show a connection between the alleged defect and the injury.
CPSC identifies Amp Fit Inc. as the importer. The recall itself does not establish civil liability against Amp Fit or another company.
Current AMP Fitness Machine Lawsuit and Recall Status
The principal documented federal safety action is the CPSC recall of approximately 1,900 AMP MP2 Smart Fitness Machines. The recall provides a free inspection and in-home repair for affected consumers.
The CPSC notice itself does not announce a class action, multidistrict litigation proceeding, or nationwide personal-injury settlement involving the AMP MP2 machine.
Individual injury claims may still warrant legal review when an arm allegedly failed to lock and caused a medically documented laceration or other significant injury.
Do I Qualify for an AMP Fitness Machine Claim?
- Did you own or use an AMP MP2 Smart Fitness Machine?
- Did the adjustable arm fail to lock or move unexpectedly?
- Did the arm strike your head, shoulder, or another part of your body?
- Did you suffer a laceration, bruising, or another injury requiring medical treatment?
Answering yes to one or more questions does not automatically establish a lawsuit. An attorney can review the recalled machine, locking failure, injury, repair history, medical records, and applicable filing deadlines to determine whether further investigation may be appropriate.
Legal Process for an AMP Fitness Machine Claim
- Free case review. An attorney reviews the recalled machine, locking failure, injury, and available documentation.
- Investigation. Evidence may include the machine, locking mechanism, photographs, purchase records, recall repair records, and medical documentation.
- Filing. If the evidence and applicable law support a claim, a product-liability lawsuit may be filed against one or more potentially responsible parties.
- Discovery/negotiation. The parties may exchange evidence, obtain testimony, consult engineering or medical experts, and discuss possible resolution.
- Resolution. A case may conclude through settlement, dismissal, court ruling, or trial depending on its facts and procedural history.
Compensation in an AMP Fitness Machine Injury Case
Depending on the circumstances, a claim may seek damages for emergency care, medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering, scarring, future treatment, and other losses permitted under applicable law.
Compensation amounts vary by case. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
