The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 has 3 recalls, the most serious involving the rear fuel pump on dual-tank gasoline models, which can fail to transfer fuel properly and cause the engine to stall without warning.
This recall only affects trucks equipped with dual fuel tanks. When the rear tank's pump stops moving fuel to the front tank, the engine can cut out in traffic, leaving the driver with reduced control and no power at a moment when it matters. The remaining two recalls both concern missing owner's manuals. Some vehicles left the factory without one, meaning owners have no printed reference for child seat anchor points or other safety-related procedures. These two filings cover overlapping groups of affected vehicles but describe the same underlying gap: no documentation in the glovebox. The fix in both cases is the same, delivering the missing manual to the owner.
