Triumph Street Triple Recalls

The Triumph Street Triple has 5 recalls spanning 2008 through 2018, with the most serious recent issue affecting 2018 models where front brake pads can separate from their backing plates, reducing braking force and extending stopping distances.

The 2012-2013 models equipped with ABS have a steering-related concern where four bolts securing cable guides at the headstock lack threadlock and can work loose over time, restricting steering movement. The 2011-2012 model years share a wheel bearing recall where bearings of uncertain quality were installed during assembly and can fail unexpectedly, leaving the rider without reliable wheel support. A similar bearing issue affects 2011 models specifically, where bearings sourced from an unapproved supplier were used and their durability cannot be confirmed, raising the same risk of sudden wheel bearing failure. Going back to the earliest production year covered, 2008 models have a rear shock absorber that can develop an internal leak, gradually losing its ability to dampen suspension movement and making the rear of the motorcycle unpredictable, particularly over uneven surfaces.
