What this page shows
Everything below is an owner-reported complaint submitted to NHTSA about the 2001 Triumph Sprint RS, grouped by the component NHTSA recorded on the report.

Complaints are reports submitted by owners and drivers to NHTSA. They are not verified and do not establish that a defect exists.

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
