Buying a used 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 3500? Check these 3 recalls first
The 2024 Silverado 3500 has 3 recalls in this group. Steering gear fracture is the principal recall concern, with two additional campaigns addressing tailgates that may unlatch. Its 51 NHTSA owner complaints are unverified reports, led by electrical system at 19, power train at 15, and service brakes at 12. The record also lists 2 crashes, 0 fires, and 1 injury. Repair documentation should address the steering and tailgate campaigns alongside any electrical, shifting, or braking symptoms.
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.
- Obtain VIN-specific proof of steering gear recall completion.
- Verify completion of both tailgate unlatching campaigns.
- Ask for electrical, transmission, and brake diagnostic 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.
