Service Brakes

Filed Oct 7, 2022NC

The front brakes lost compression so much that the breaks wouldn't engage until the lever was pulled all the way back to the grip. Took to the shop they said there was air in the line. Front brakes were flushed and fresh brake fluid was added. Brakes felt fine once I got it out of the shop but then lost compression again a few weeks later.

2019 TRIUMPH SPEED TWIN WITH BREMBO FRONT BRAKES. FRONT BRAKE LEVER FEELS MUSHY ON FIRST PULL, IT'S SOFT ENOUGH TO PULL ALL THE WAY BACK TO THE BAR. IF RELEASED AND PULLED AGAIN IMMEDIATELY, THE LEVER FEELS NORMAL/MUCH FIRMER. THIS "DOUBLE PULL" ISSUE RECURS WHENEVER THE BRAKES ARE NOT USED FOR MORE THAN A MINUTE OR SO. ISSUE OCCURS BOTH WHEN THE BIKE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE THE BIKE WAS NEW. BRAKES WERE BLED TWICE BY THE SELLING DEALER, BUT THE ISSUE PERSISTS.

Reading this record

No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
