VOLUNTARY SAFETY RECALL
(July 2018)
This voluntary Recall is limited to 2017-2018 Kingpin models. Sales of some models of recalled bindings began in 2017 and some in 2018. Only the toe part of the bindings needs to be replaced.
These bindings are being recalled because the Pin in the toe part can break under rare circumstances. This can result in reduced release/retention and leads to fall hazard.

Affected Bindings
Affected are all Kingpin models with a new Marker Logo on the toe part and a golden or copper colour.

Telephone Q&A Script for USA/Canada Consumers
What you are looking for?
In just a few seconds to answer - matters whether you have a question about the product or another topic. Maybe here you find the answer.
-
Are there any legal requirements for ski bindings?
There are no government-mandated standards that apply to ski bindings sold in the United States or Canada, but we design our bindings to comply with European and ASTM safety standards, both of which are considered voluntary standards for ski bindings sold in North America. Some of these standards are mandatory for ski bindings sold in Europe.
-
Has this recall been approved by the government?
Yes. We are conducting this recall in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission / Health Canada, who will monitor the effectiveness of this recall program.
-
How can I tell if my ski binding is among the ones being recalled?
We can help you make this determination by the serial number on the heel unit and by looking for the Marker logo on the toe unit.
-
I like my bindings just the way they are; I’d prefer to keep them.
We’re glad you like your Kingpin bindings, but because this recall involves a potential safety issue you really need to return them.
-
I received my ski bindings as a gift, or I’ve lost my proof of purchase for them. Can I still take advantage of the recall?
Proof of purchase is not required. We just need you to return the ski bindings to a Marker Authorized Retailer.
-
I want to be sure my new ski bindings are the same color as what I have now. Can you guarantee that? Or, can you replace my bindings with a different color?
We will make every effort to provide replacement toe units in the same colors, gold or copper, as you originally purchased, but we can’t guarantee it.
-
I want to take advantage of the recall, but I’d like to keep my old ski bindings as a souvenir, can I do that?
Unfortunately not. We must take back the old ski bindings.
-
I’d rather just get my money back. Can you send me a refund instead of a replacement?
This recall does not involve offering a refund. The recall as authorized by the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission / Health Canada calls for replacing recalled toe units with new ones. It does not authorize refunds.
-
What am I supposed to do if I have one of these ski bindings?
If you have Kingpin ski bindings that are covered by the recall, please stop using them and bring them to your Marker Authorized Retailer, who will replace the toe units with new ones, free of charge
-
What products are being recalled?
Marker is conducting a voluntary recall of Marker Kingpin ski bindings that were produced and sold during the 2017/2018 ski season. This recall does not affect any other Marker products.
-
Why is Marker recalling these ski bindings?
We have identified some isolated instances of pin breakage in the toes that might result in an unexpected release and fall hazard. That is unacceptable to us, so we are voluntarily recalling all of the 2017/2018 production so we can replace the toe units of all bindings new toes that meet our requirements.
What should I do?
Check with Marker or your Marker Authorized Retailer for details.
Stop using these bindings and return them to a Marker Authorized Retailer to determine if they are covered by this recall.
Toe pieces of recalled bindings will be replaced at no charge.
Skiers should bring their boots to be sure their bindings are adjusted correctly for their boots.
