Teko recalls 1,934 2026 Triumph, Turbo, TurboLite, Trophy and Trophy Plus vehicles over missing pedestrian warning sound

The system that makes a warning sound for pedestrians may not have been installed, so these vehicles may not make noise as they approach, raising the risk of a crash or injury.

What to do

Teko will provide a pedestrian warning sound kit free of charge, and owner letters are expected to be mailed August 17, 2026. Owners may contact Teko Customer Care at contact@tekoev.com.
