3 recalls across 7 model years
The Chevrolet Silverado 5500 has 3 recalls covering 2019-2024 model years, with the most serious being a brake pressure sensor that can leak fluid into the brake pressure switch, cause an electrical short, and start a fire while the vehicle is driving or parked.
The 2024 model year has a separate issue where the airbag control module may not have been activated during installation, meaning the airbags will not deploy in a crash. On 2019-2020 models, a prior brake repair introduced a wiring harness assembled without protective tape; the exposed wires can sustain damage and cause the power brake assist to fail, requiring significantly more pedal force to slow the vehicle.
