The turn indicators on my motorcycle will randomly fail and the display will read “ left front indicator failure” etc. This has happened on all four indicators and the fault will continue until the motorcycle is shut off. This happens almost daily on one of the four indicators. There is a very real danger of other drivers not knowing of your turning because of an indicator malfunction. Through social media I have learned that this is a problem numerous Rocket 3 owners are having and Triumph has been aware of the problem for months now and has not corrected the issue. I took mine to my local Triumph service department and they were able to duplicate the problem but had no solution stating they contacted Triumph for support. It has been two weeks and no reply or remedy has been received from Triumph. There has also been a problem with the rear brakes fading and with some owners the rear brakes have completely stopped working. I took mine to the Triumph service department and they performed the recommended brake bleeding procedure. The brakes were better for three days then went back to the same fading condition. This is also a common problem with 2020 and newer Rocket 3 according to numerous social media posts.

The rear brake system on my 2020 Triumph Rocket 3 GT has failed repeatedly since purchase. After 2–3 rides, the rear brake progressively fades and then loses all braking force. The defect has been reproduced six times over multiple years and is documented in six repair orders. The motorcycle is available for inspection. The safety risk is loss of rear braking while riding. The motorcycle has been returned to me in unsafe condition, including loose handlebars and a heat shield falling off after service. My father witnessed these conditions. The dealership (Northern Colorado Powersports) confirmed the brake failure but only performed temporary brake bleeds and one brake line replacement. They told me major components—including the rear master cylinder—were replaced, but my printed service records show this never occurred. They also told me Triumph Corporate “denied the claim,” but Triumph Corporate later confirmed in writing that no claim or technical case was ever submitted for my VIN. The motorcycle has not been inspected by Triumph Corporate or any independent inspector. No police or insurance inspections have occurred. There were no warning lamps or messages. The only symptom is progressive brake fade leading to complete rear brake failure after a few rides. This defect is part of NHTSA Recall 23V730000 (Safety Recall 611), but the required recall repair was never performed, never reported, and never submitted to Triumph Corporate.
