- The defect
- Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD (Triumph) is recalling certain 2013-2017 Trophy SE A1 and 2013 Trophy SE A1 Launch motorcycles. The ignition switch wiring may be damaged due to the improper routing of the front brake hose, possibly resulting in inoperable headlights or taillights or an engine stall.
- What it can cause
- A sudden loss of vehicle lighting or an engine stall increases the risk of a crash.
- What the dealer does
- Triumph will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and reroute the brake hose, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began April 13, 2020. Owners may contact Triumph customer service at 1-678-854-2010. Triumph's number for this recall is SRAN574.
- NHTSA's note
- Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
The repair is free, whatever the age or mileage of the vehicle, and whether or not you are the original owner.
Which vehicles
A recall reaches a range of VINs inside these model years, not every car built in them. Yours may not be covered even if it is listed here, and the only way to find out is NHTSA's own VIN lookup .

How this campaign compares
At 1,585 vehicles this is a bigger campaign than 63% of the 19,818 vehicle recalls filed since 1995 whose size NHTSA published. The middle campaign on file covers 472. It covers model years 2013 to 2017, so the oldest vehicles on it were 7 model years old when the defect was reported to NHTSA.
Triumph vehicles have been recalled over the service brakes, hydraulic 5 times before this, most recently in July 2013 as 13V319000. That is not evidence the earlier repair failed.
This site holds the complaint record for 1 of the 5 model years the campaign names. Their owners have filed 5 complaints with NHTSA, 4 of them before this campaign was filed. The earliest of them reached NHTSA in August 2018, 1 year before this filing.
Check your own car
A VIN check is the only answer for a specific vehicle, and it also shows every other open recall on it, which is usually the reason it is worth doing rather than reading one campaign.
Filed by Triumph Motorcycles America, LTD with NHTSA on March 17, 2020 as campaign 20V150000. Every word of the defect, consequence and remedy above is NHTSA's published record of that filing, not a summary of it.
