The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 has 3 recalls, the most serious being a steering gear shaft that can fracture and disconnect from the steering arm, causing a complete and sudden loss of steering control.
On trucks equipped with a power-unlatching tailgate, water can get into the electronic gate-release switch and cause a short circuit, triggering the tailgate to swing open on its own while the truck is parked or in motion. Cargo that shifts or falls out can become a road hazard for other vehicles. This tailgate issue affects only trucks with the power-unlatching tailgate option, so owners of standard manually latched tailgates are not affected by this particular concern.
