Triumph Motorcycle Dangerous Lemons: Suspension problems

According to an October 2014 lawsuit, a California resident, purchased a new 2007 Triumph Daytona 675 in April 2007 and, seven years later, he was traveling on a highway at roughly 60 miles an hour when the suspension plates on his motorcycle failed and his rear wheel locked up. the motorcycle became “uncontrollable,” and he skidded off the road and was thrown from the motorcycle, suffering injuries, he alleged.
The lawsuit was filed on behalf of all consumers nationwide who purchased one of Triumph’s model year 2006 to 2009 Daytona 675 or Street Triple 675 motorcycles, the suit contends that the potential class is composed of thousands, “if not tens of thousands” of motorcycle buyers.

The suit says that from 2007 to 2014, numerous Triumph owners have published online accounts of crashes and injuries resulting from suspension plate failure, and that multiple customers have reported incidents to Triumph, actually leading to the company to switch from the defective cast aluminum plates to stronger milled steel plates in 2009.
After this switch, however, Triumph did not notify its customers about the defect, conduct a recall, or offer repair or replacement for the existing defective vehicles, according to the suit.
