Fuel economy data from fueleconomy.gov (EPA / U.S. Dept. of Energy). Annual cost based on 15,000 mi/yr at 55% city driving and current fuel prices. MPG is U.S. gallons; L/100km converted. Ranges reflect the 11 tested variants for this model year.
Complaints for the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado skew heavily toward the EV variant and cluster around electrical and structural issues. On the electrical side, owners report DC fast charging delivering noticeably reduced power compared to prior sessions at the same stations, and HVAC failures in cold weather where the system stops producing heat and leaves windows unable to defrost, in one case traced to an inoperable heater control module. The structural complaints center on the soft tonneau cover, with multiple owners describing the cover material shrinking over time so the side flaps no longer attach to the bed rail Velcro; at least one report describes a cover partially detaching at highway speed with a crossbar separating from the assembly entirely. A smaller number of visibility complaints likely connect to the same HVAC/defrost issue reported in cold-weather operation.

By System
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado has 4 recalls, the most serious involving the electric rear drive unit, where insufficiently insulated motor wires can contact each other and cut drive power while the vehicle is moving.
The remaining three recalls all involve seatbelt attachment points. Front seat belt buckles on both sides may have attachment bolts that were not properly tightened, which can prevent the buckle from holding an occupant in a crash. The rear center seat belt has a similar issue, where the bolt securing the assembly to the seat structure may also be loose and fail to restrain an occupant. There is also a concern with the second-row center seat belt bezel, where an incorrect part can cut or tear the belt webbing in a crash, leaving that occupant without effective restraint. All four recalls apply to the Silverado EV configuration.
