Buying a used 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500? Check these 6 recalls first
The 2022 Silverado 1500 has 6 recalls in this group, with engine failure, airbag nondeployment, transmission wheel lockup, and diesel rear-wheel lockup among the main concerns. Lighting campaigns cover a sport bar brake light and daytime running lights that stay on. The 618 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports; engine accounts for 243, power train 175, and electrical system 134. The record calls for attention to both major mechanical repairs and documented lighting and airbag remedies.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify applicable engine, wheel-lockup, and airbag recall completion by VIN.
- Check sport bar brake light operation and daytime-running-light recall status.
- Request engine, transmission, and electrical repair records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Chevrolet dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
