Key Points

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has been the subject of 10 major recalls regarding its brakes, seat belts, and possible fire hazards.
Customers list many complaints about its jerky transmission, shuddering ride, poor visibility, stiff suspension, and difficult LATCH connectors.
One of the most serious recalls is over the 2019 Silverado 1500’s anti-lock braking and electronic stability control, which may switch off without warning.

2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s Most Serious Safety Recalls Concern Malfunctioning Seat Belts and Potential Engine Fires

The Chevy Silverado is an American institution, despite its wildly inconsistent track record. The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado is powerful and roomy, with acceptable gas mileage for its size.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) rated its front crash avoidance as “Superior”. J.D. Power gave the 2019 Silverado 1500 a reliability rating of 81 out of 100. However, Chevy’s light-duty 1500 pickup truck was the subject of 10 major recalls.

One of the more serious recalls is over malfunctioning electronic braking equipment. Reportedly, the 2019 Silverado 1500’s anti-lock braking and electronic stability control systems might switch off without warning. If this happened, the warning light may not activate either.

Another recall warned that the electronic brake assist might stop working. This affected roughly a quarter (148,055) of Silverados and GMC Sierra 1500s from 2019.

The NHTSA also recalled some 2019-2020 Silverados over another seat belt issue due to malfunctioning seat belt pretensioners that may cause hot gas to vent through an opening in the pretensioner bracket, possibly igniting the carpet.

Also, some 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 trucks may have an alternator issue, with a recall going out over wiring that may lose contact and cause the engine to stall and possibly create a fire.

2019 Silverado’s Structure, Safety Cage, and Headlights Rate Poorly in Crash Safety

The International Institute for Highway Safety gave an overall crash safety rating of “Marginal” for the Silverado 1500, rating the structure and safety cage poorly. Both low and high-beams reportedly produced excessive glare on all 2019 Silverado 1500 trims.

Overall, they rated the headlights on the Silverado 1500 as “Poor.”

2019 Silverado owners also note that the dashboard, including the speedometer, often displays incorrect information. The 1500 also saw many complaints about a jerky transmission and delayed gear shifts. The truck may also shudder at highway speed.

A Mixed Bag, the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado has a Few Serious Problems but is Overall a Quality Pickup Truck

The 2019 Chevrolet Silverado racked up 10 recalls, without about half of them of serious concern. Among recalls for glitchy software are recalls for problems including a poor alternator connection that may cause a crash or fire. Plus, the pickup’s reported rough-shifting transmission is a drawback.

Along with its 10 recalls and over 300 registered complaints, the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 also comes with decades of Chevy’s proven reliability and high-quality vehicles. So, although its problems and recalls should be considered, the 2019 Silverado is nevertheless a quality vehicle with a solid longtime reputation as a dependable brand.

Worst Chevrolet I ever purchased

I brought this thing August 2019 . I had it a few days keep hearing a popping sound from rear end. I couldn't take it anymore took it to local dealer because I purchased it out state. They said the did hear anything. Picked up two weeks I couldn't take anymore took it back after 5 days they call said the leaf springs need to be replaced had to order them. Take this truck only had 23000 miles on it. It did cross my mind why this truck is back on the lot for sale. But I fall in love with it when I passed it on the highway turn around to get. Mean while all this hard shifting I was told that was normal so didn't let it bother me to much but I didn't like. Now 2022 some where around June my low oil light came on luck I was pulling in my yard .shut it off let the oil settle down take a reading no oil on the dip-stick. Took it straight to dealer about three miles from me. The man didn't believe me so he took me around to show me how to check the oil now I'm really pissed because you trying to make me look like a fool. So he checked oh man you right. He then asked when was the last time the oil changed about a month and a half ago. Well maybe they didn't put enough oil in it. REALLY.I get home call GM told me to take it to a dealership have them to run a oilconsumption test. I took it to another dealership here it is September 2023 still dealing with the same thing call a said it passed the test. I'm like what the hell are you'll talking about just a month ago I bought it inhave oil check and you tells me it 3 quarts low .we need to change oil and bring it back in two weeks to recheck oh its okay don't need no oil so it passed the consumption test REALLY. It's now not just about the oil put the big knock I get when I stop as like someone has ran into to the back of me. Ok that's just some of the problems I have had with this truck. I retired 2019 decided to invest in a new truck well two years old truck take a lot GM. Used some of my retirement funds. I hope you all can get my point because I sure I messed up this somewhere.

Chevy has recalls for exact issue

Chevy doesn’t back up it’s products simple as that. My oil cooler lines are leaking and have been leaking for quite some time. Never knew about it because the skid plate was catching it all. I checked online and noticed there was a recall for the crimps loosening and causing this exact problem. Several forums with people having the same exact issue and all told the exact same thing. “It isn’t in the vin# range” so they won’t do anything about it. Clearly they knew of a manufacture issue, then claim they are only going to honor trucks that were sold in Alaska with the 2.7 liter motor. So basically they looked at the cheapest way possible to get out of having to replace ALL of the lines on their lineup because I’m sure SOOO many 2.7 liter trucks were sold in Alaska. What a freaking joke. My transmission bangs into gear if I back up and put it into drive. I can give it 5 seconds to switch and doesn’t matter the firstbit of gas makes it bang it’s done that ever since I bought the truck. The brakes have been changed out twice and it’s only at 60k miles and I drive like a grandpa coasting as much as I can do I get better gas mileage. The company refuses to stand behind their products. Its been in the shop more than my 97 I had before my 2019 model. Guess I will be switching to Toyota since they have about 1/5th of the total recalls. Absolutely disgusted that a company that makes BILLIONS a year in profits can’t take care of their loyal customers. No more I’m done with them. Both my truck and my wife’s GM Acadia are going to be gone here VERY soon. New 4 runner and tundra coming out way. Don’t buy American made trash they only care about profits not their customers or their safety. I’m out over 2k when I took it in jsut to have it checked out and make sureit was good for the summer.

Worst purchase I have ever made

I bought this truck with hopes that new truck no worries lol. That's a joke. I've had more issues with this truck than my 25year old trucks! I've had it less than 6 months. Front brakes went out including rotors at 1100 $ toreplace. Then misfire on cylinder 1 . I changed the spark plug no help then wire and coil pack no fix. Read into it it's a faulty lifter issue very common. Which tells me they need to recall all of them! At 42k $ and payments at 700 a month I'm miserable. Chevy.has let me all the way down! I want to sue chevrolet rightnow! I have a lifetime power train but what's the good in that bc it will never be fixed!!!!! It burns oil 8 quarts of oil burns thru less than 3k miles every oil change! Exc light and traction is lost bc of cylinder misfire issue that doesn't have anything to do with the spark plug or the coil pack or the injector. All about the bs valve lifter issue!!!! Transmission 10 speed a pos I hate this truck and want to blow it up. I'm gonna talk to a lawyer I hope we can do a class action lawsuit against chevy for selling over priced pos trucks to america!!!!!! Thanks chevy for ruining my savings and my day to day life and adding constant stress over this pos 6.2 l truck u sold me!!!!

Another Herky Jerky Silverado

We had a 2016 Z71 that began jerking majorly out of nowhere around 60k miles. First visit to dealership some parts were replaced, transmission fluid was drained for the second time within 60k miles. A few weeks later the same herky jerking began again. We took it to a different dealership this time. After speaking with the service manager, explaining previous issue, within 24 hours we received a call stating they would be replacing the complete transmission. Well, a short time later we traded for a new 2019 Z71. Here we are; just over 60k miles and same the same jerking problem occurring. Did not purchase the 100k warranty bc we planned to trade before 60k. Pandemic hit and now stuck paying for this major repair out of pocket. My husband has driven a Chevy since he was 17! Needless to say, this will be the last. Unsolicited advice: When you can, purchase the 100k additional coverage for drivetrain. Even though you may have to fight to have repairs completed correctly, in the end, it’s well worth it. Especially if you drive quite a bit.

My first New truck

I bought my 1st new chevy Silverado z71, in 2020, it had 13,000 miles on it ,To me it was new, At 16000 miles the high pressure oil line came apart, they tried to change the oil and give it back, but luckily the mechanic had told me he would wait for me before starting the truck, good thing 2pistons came apart, they then wanted to rebuild the engine and I refused to I paid 2400, for the best warranty they offered, so 4 months later I got my truck back with a new engine. Now at 53000 miles the transmission started kicking up and down I took it in and was told it was the fluid that needed to be changed to a newer brand fluid, in the meantime I was driving down the road at 10mph when it felt like I was getting a flat I applied the brakes and my frount left tire fell off, it is now at the dealership for the past couple of days until they get an estimate on the damage and to see if the warranty will cover it. I am at the end of my rope with the problems with this truck.

4 Years of New Problems

I was the first in the neighborhood to get this beautiful new Silverado body style. First red flag was the jarring shift from R to D. I honestly thought someone hit me from behind. After about 3 of these, I took it in, and was told; "Yeah, thats normal, they shift hard sometimes" Second; during driving on the freeway, everything electrical went haywire and truck went into limp mode, Itook it in after for a warranty repair. Third: Total engine failure at 55k miles, oil cooler line broke and had to replace the motor (Chevy warrantied this one) Fourth:Electrical display occasionaly blacks out Fifth: Rear hub is making an unusual noise after about 60k miles (dealer said thats normal too) Sixth and Final Issue: Tranny is studdering at low speeds. Really too bad. Ive had multiple GM products, but this might be my last. Not happy with the way the dealer keeps dismissing everything.

Worst vehicle purchase I’ve ever made

My Trailboss is a great looking PU Truck on the outside but internally it’s the worst vehicle I’ve ever purchased. I bought this truck in August 2019 and it’s been in and out of my local Chevy dealer more than I’d like to say. Here’s my list of issues: 2019 LT Trail boss 33k miles I’m on my third transmission hard shift hard braking it’s just terrible. The radio display stops working when it wants to. My tires are getting worn ( alignment is fine I’ve had it checked three times) on the inside of the every other notch GM refuses to cover it even though the vehicle is under warranty. Remote start the vehicle I won’t go into gear and when it does it’s a hard bang from the transmission. Beware of this truck it’s not worth the hassle to have a pretty lawn ornament that cost $40k+

Gerald on March 17, 2023

Stay away

The truck drove well for almost 2 years. After that the oil cooler line blew twice, the second time the engine needed to be replaced. 6 months later, with a new engine, all the lifters needed to be replaced. After the lifters were replaced the “service parking brake“ and “ECS” lights came on and the truck wouldn’t engage into drive. A year later when it happened again I said I was done. I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life with a new vehicle. Even when the truck was healthy you could feel the transmission issues it was having. It felt like the only time it drove well was in temperatures above 40 degrees. I told the better business bureau that the truck was dangerous for me and my family.

Not happy with 2019 Chevy 1500

So, we bought this vehicle with only 15,000 miles on it a couple years ago and right now it's only 4 years old with 37,000 miles on it. This afternoon it wouldn't start, just clicked. Tried jumping it but of course that wasn't the issue. Had to have it towed to a shop and it sounds like it's the starter, ALREADY? I bought a newer vehicle to AVOID things like this happening. And of course now the basic warranty is just over and we will find out if this is covered under the GM Powertrain Warranty!! This ought to go well! So disappointed. I didn't want my husband to buy this Chevy because my last Chevy Malibu was a joke from the beginning. We won't buy another one now, I can tell you that much!

Philip Lelle on January 9, 2024

Bought new, big mistake

The transmission has never shifted right, either late shifting or hard shifting and at times late shifting while coming to a stop! Techs have the same BS every time I bring it in….nothing wrong, it’s just the way the transmission shifts. In the shop right now for what I complained about as a loud chirping noise and clicking noise when first started in the am of if vehicle is cold or when I accelerate in a left turn. Tech advised some of the exhaust manifold bolts have broken and the only way to access them is to remove the cylinder heads. Estimate is $3100.00, insane!!!! And the truck only has 71,000 miles. I’ll never buy another Silverado

RandyWillison on August 17, 2022

Brake locking on the front by themself

Got to the bottom of a small hill just letting it go at about 80 mph and the right front brake locked up by its self i wasnt breaking and hadnt been the tire was squealing and it headed for the ditch. If it hadnt let go i would not be writting this. It been one thing after another with this 2020 chev half ton its only got 20,000 on it. Ill see what kind of lies Karl tyler chev in missoula mt. Has to tell me about this. BUT IM DONE WITH THE BULLSHIT THIS IS TO DANGERS. MAD IN MT. OH and to top it off my radio screen is and has been locked up for over two months hurry and wait.

Daniel moise on August 21, 2023

Base on my exPerience with the chevy Silverado i bought in 2019 was a big mistake

On December 2019 I bought this pick up truck brand new you can say with 3500 miles on it drove it for about a month then transmission gave I had to tow the truck to the dealer after many phone calls to dealer and GM concluded on replacing the transmission after sittings for 3 months I got my truck back thinking that the end of it in the contrary it was the beginning of my nightmare for a $40,000.00 plus truck that never ceases to end all the issues you’ve heard from the other owners.i have experience them all as of today 08/20/ 2024 my speedometer is at 24,000 miles

Steven Mitchell AKA former Gm owner on January 2, 2023

Transmission

Currently, my 19 silverado is in the dealership for trans for over 2 weeks, this I believe to be a complaint every time it was in for service. I was pretty much deemed to be an idiot as it was always written up as customer states ( transmission not shifting correctly) tech states ( nothing found) I traded in my problematic ram because i thought i would be in better hands with general motors. I couldnt be more mistaken. Although the Gm reps seemed to be concerned with issues, Not a thing has been corrected. Easier to take the bus

Jen T on November 20, 2021

Chevrolet trucks.

It is eroding the back bed and it really should have a custom bed liner. It is brakes go easy and the tires are expensive. The electrical system is going and shuts down. The windows and door locks act up and do not work sometimes. The undercarriage should have been painted and sealed to prevent the rust and salt from the roads to eat away the paint and cab. The undercarriage is rusted and has some smaller holes were the same thing happened. The window wipers do not work well on the timer for the lower setting.

Christopher Brown on March 21, 2023

2019 Silverado, left front axel separation caused accident

Chevy has recalled 43 2019 silverados for faulty axel, cv joint. Thos who have had vibrations, look out, you could be driving a death trap when it comes apart doing 70 on a freeway. ESIS division of chevy is the cat watching the canary. DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM, they only exist to insulate chevy from lawsuits, always go directly to an attorney. This is a very dangerous situation, I hear of so many that complain of front end vibration. This is the start of failure.

Kirsten P on December 2, 2021

Unimpressed with the quality of my truck.

There are issues with the vehicles transmission. The pulling capabilities leave much to be desired in comparison to my old ford f150. I have noticed that the windshield wiper fluid goes very quickly due to the amount that is used from the sprayers. The power to start from a stopped position is not there due to the v4 switch that happens when vehicle is in a lower gear. The truck also is not great in the snow and ice compared to other 4x4 vehicles I have owned.

Harold Lopez on October 16, 2021

Stand behind your product!

2019 Chevy Silverado. 6000 miles on it. Shifting real hard. Truck is in the garage dead wound start. Lemon no more Chevy for me. To top it off the closest thedealer would take 2 weeks before they could work on the truck. Since the next dealer ship was further I had to pay the difference out of my pocket. Reliable Chevrolet’s refused to pay for it.. I have a 1998 Toyota 4 runner 250,000 miles still runs great. Taking this lemon back and buy a Toyota

Chris C on March 1, 2023

Worst truck ever

2019 6.2 ltz silverado I'm so depressed rn got it for 42k. I've spent 2k on repairs and have a misfire on cylinder 1, changed the coil pack, the spark plug, the wire no help. Taking it to dealer and getting rid of it. Complete waiste of time money and my savings account is miserable rn. I have 25 yr old trucks in better condition and mechanical health than this pos 3 yr old truck! I'm gonna sue chevrolet for ripping me off!

L Durham on July 18, 2022

Transmission

Have a 2019 gmc serria . Having trouble transmission shift only on first shift. Jerk or banging noise on last heat shifting down. Local chev dealer got that fixed . But now when hot shifts hard or jerky on up shift in first gear. Informed can’t be adjusted . So far overall ridenot satisfied with to loose for a truck. Also don’t buy a equinox golf cart front suspension is better than its got

Philip L on January 9, 2024

Worst Silverado Ever, Chevy Lost This Customer

New 2019 Chevy Silverado-Transmission shifts late, shifts hard, delays shifting and doesn’t like to disengage when when coming to a stop. Techs tell me that’s the way it shifts, nothing wrong. Exhaust manifold bolts broken or missing, only 71,000mi. Service tech advises $3100.00, they have to remove the cylinder heads to access the broken bolts. This is insane! GM has gone to he!!.

Mike Bennett on October 25, 2023

Junk

I ordered a brand new 2019 Chevy Silverado Hi country, fully loaded with every option possible, which also included the cat back exhaust system. Sticker price was $71,000. I have replacedone of the rear cameras, retractable Nerf bars, lifters, transmission, all the recalls. I thought my 2014 Chevy Silverado that I purchase Brand New was junk, this one takes it to a whole Nother level

Joel S on November 16, 2021

Not such a boss on the trail.

For the price the features are less than desirable passenger seat is manual only drivers seat is electric passenger window is not the one touch operation. The locker in the rear is pretty violent when it engages. Famous for rear window leaking mine did. Stock tires are very noisy. Comes with s 2 inch factory lift but still has a ton of rake so basically no lift.

No parts for repair

My Silverado is officially a lemon based on lemon laws. A bearing went out in one of my belt pullys, and it took almost ten weeks to get a replacement part. Since the duration officially made it a lemon, I was provided multiple loaners and two months of payments were made. However it leaves concerns that why does a car maker not have replacement parts??

Charles B. on August 26, 2022

The paint peeling on front fenders.

I like the truck overall but there are a few issues. Firstly when backing up then putting back into drive there is a Big Bang sound and I thought the rearend fell out, another problem I got was the paint chipping on the front fenders fenders and rustining. The paint is peeling from underneath OtherHan that I’m ok with it.

Dennis M on February 9, 2022

Silverado problems. Should have stayed with 2005 suburban.

Vehicle has a vibration problem that seven trips to two different dealers cannot figure out. They tell me that it is normal? The first blame was on the transmission and then the (dfm)- dynamic fuel management system. Will not let me talk to a factory representative. I do miss a CD player that is not offered.

mossbergmike on December 30, 2022

Ecm issues

Bought a leftover in dec 19’. About 15k it started having electrical issues when first started. Idled strange.no power stearing, would not go in reverse. Its done this 3 times, now at 21k. Google search said its the ECM. I dont want to spend 800$ for a new one. It happens at the worst time. Who knows.

Darrell on January 9, 2023

Carbon monoxide from exhaust

While sitting still or using the electric start on the 2019 Chevy Silverado the cab seems to fill with exhaust fumes somehow. I have noticed that every time I start the truck to get warm that when I get into the vehicle that there is a overwhelming amount carbon monoxide in the cab.

Dennis C on June 26, 2021

Chevy is no comparison to a ford.

Just does not compare to ford. It just does not have the point power like the forward does and the body is a lot weaker. The seats are very uncomfortable and the legroom is less than a ford supercrew cab. If I had to do it all over again I would definitely choose a ford.

Nate M on August 14, 2021

Worst Vehicle

My vehicle has 33k miles, and I’m on my third transmission. It is hard to shift as well as hard on braking. The radio display stops working. Remote start does not work properly by refusing to be in gear, but if it does there is a hard bang from the transmission.

Ma F on January 3, 2022

Should have gotten a ford.

Mirrors are awkward.. Not big enough. I do not like the size of the bench seats. I would not recommend to get a dark blue it shows too much dirt. And I have to wash it too often. I like the old model better because I believe it had better features on gas mileage.

Sam Scarfino on November 18, 2021

2.7 Engine ..... Not so sure

I have the 2.7 twin turbo in the rst. Love the truck but having trouble with the engine. Started Idling rough, engine warning light comes on, message says engine power reduced. Been in shop twice so far. Thinking I should have bought the 5.3.

Ralph on December 2, 2022

Jerky transmission

Transmission bangs when downshifting..it did a few times under warranty but since the warranty went out it does it almost all the time..Transmission sounds loose inside ..I'm gonna run it until it breaks..I've heard this from a lot of people

Trever on July 9, 2022

Already had todo pan gaskets and pressure fluctuates

I I have a 2019 Silverado 4.3 6 cylinder already owning It 2 months having to do pan gaskets fluctuating oil pressure needing a new sensor leaking oil all around would never buy a Chevy again mind you I only have 60,000 miles on it

Dennis M on November 12, 2021

Silverado Problems

The vehicle has a vibration problem. Even after seven trips to two different dealers they cannot figure it out. So far they have blamed two different areas for the problem the transmission and (DFM)- dynamic fuel management system.

Worst vehicle

I've had my 2019 since mile 3 and nothing but problems!!! Stuck lifter valve is the latest issue and $8,200 to fix. What in the actual f**k?!?! I'm so pissed at GM and WILL be looking in to filing a lawsuit!

Ana TX on December 8, 2023

Zero

2019 Silverado trail boss, We bought the car out of state, after less than a year problems came out, loose back cover, brake, on & off . Now transmission, we are asked to pay 10k for the repair. How crazy!

Silky on March 16, 2023

Collapsed Lifters and Cam Shaft

My 2019 Silverado LTZ had the lifters to collapse with damaged the Cam Shaft, basically had to have my engine practically rebuilt. I had 90K miles so my warranty was over. Had to pay out of pocket.

Jen T on October 8, 2021

Multiple Issues

It is eroding the back bed. It is brakes go easy. The tires are expensive. The electrical system is going out and/or shutting down. The windows and door locks act up and/or do not work.

Vicky on April 5, 2022

Starter

The starter already went bad. The auto shop we bought the starter from said this is a common problem with the 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 series. I didn’t see no recalls on starters.

Glenn D on October 25, 2021

Needs a little bit of work.

Recalls on break, and some interior issues, seats are not that comfortable. Always a fight when I need to turn my vehicle in for a recall. Wish Chevy was easier to work with.

Frustrated Chevy Owner on April 12, 2023

Engine Oil Cooler Lines

They will come apart, dumping all of your oil while losing all pressure and seizing your engine. There are numerous issues with this yet a recall has not been issued.

Sheila lafleche on December 24, 2023

Transmission

Transmission problems. I got it serviced in Feb 2023 , now I think it's going on my truck .. Help ?? . Is there a recall on the truck for anything ,

Chris C on March 1, 2023

They need to recall all these trucks!

Between electric issues, transmission motor bs this truck is am lemon! Worst purchase ever made! Complete pos I should of bought a kia!

Kyle D on July 7, 2021

Why I will not ever own another Chevy.

Engine has lost power in just over a year, does not drive as smooth as when first bought. Interior is not what I ever really wanted.

Chris C on March 1, 2023

Worst truck ever 19 ltz 6.2 I hate u chevy

Chris C on January 13, 2022

Chevy Silverado is an ok vehicle.

A lot of recalls and electrical problems. V8 would be better for more power and towing capabilities.

Lewis on February 27, 2024

Biggest piece of junk ever.Lifelong gm customer but last two have been garbage. Never again will I buy a gm product..
