Each tile shows the median mileage at which that model year’s failures were reported. † marks a year whose median likely understates the mileage: much of its reporting came after 2020, when most complaints stopped recording an odometer reading. The 2014 reports latest and the 2018 earliest, but part of that gap is age: the 2014 has had 4 more years on the road to accumulate mileage.

Documented problems

What each one is ↓

Owners filed 4,693 complaints with NHTSA about the 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500; the brakes leads with 24.3% of them, and half of the 2,796 that record an odometer reading came by 51,000 miles. A count like this can’t rate reliability on its own: NHTSA records what owners chose to report, not how many of each car were sold.

Failures are spread across the mileage range, with the middle half between 27,000 and 78,000 miles.

How many miles does a 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 last?

Complaint records can’t measure how long a car lasts; they show when reported failures happened. On the 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, half of the 2,796 complaints that record an odometer reading were filed by 51,000 miles and 90% by 110,000 miles.

88 reports came in past 150,000 miles and 19 past 200,000 — each one proof that a Silverado 1500 reached that mileage, not that it failed there.

System by system, in words

Complaints about this generation are not spread evenly across the vehicle, and the systems that generate the most of them do not all fail at the same point in a car's life. The median failure across all systems here is 51,000 miles; the figures below show which parts of the car run ahead of that and which run behind.

The brakes account for 24.3% of complaints (1,142 reports, 710 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 54,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 40,000 and 75,000 miles.

The transmission and driveline accounts for 18.8% of complaints (883 reports, 420 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 46,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 10,000 and 93,000 miles.

The electrical system accounts for 18.5% of complaints (870 reports, 464 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 53,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 33,000 and 80,000 miles.

The steering accounts for 17.0% of complaints (798 reports, 550 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 54,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 34,000 and 85,000 miles.

The engine accounts for 13.4% of complaints (628 reports, 322 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 55,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 30,000 and 80,000 miles.

Problems owners could not categorise accounts for 11.7% of complaints (551 reports, 297 of them with a mileage figure), with a median of 49,000 miles, close to the vehicle's overall pattern. The middle half of these reports falls between 22,000 and 68,000 miles.

Known problems with the 2014–2018 Silverado 1500

Transmission (8L90) 2015–2018

Torque-converter shudder and harsh 2-3 / 3-4 shifts traced to the original Dexron-VI fluid formulation; GM's fix was a flush to Mobil 1 Dexron HP fluid, with repeat failures common. Same defect family as the 8L45.

Engine (5.3L/6.2L Afm) 2014–2018

AFM lifter collapse on the deactivating cylinders, frequently taking out the camshaft; owner reports cluster around 100k-120k miles.

Engine (5.3L) 2014–2018

Continued excessive oil consumption on the Gen V L83, from piston-ring sealing and AFM oil management.

Hvac 2014–2018

A/C condenser and evaporator leaks causing loss of cooling, a high-volume complaint on this body.

Before you buy a 2014–2018 Silverado 1500: the 3-minute check

Generated from 2,796 mileage-tagged complaints, 36 recall campaigns, 4 documented problem areas. Print this page — the checklist survives print.

  1. A DO NOT DRIVE recall covers part of this generation. Run the VIN before you drive it home — the fix is free at an authorized dealer.
  2. Run the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. 36 campaigns cover this generation; an open recall is a free repair you can make the seller's problem.
  3. Ask for suspension repair records. Reports on this area come at a median of 12,000 miles — on any car this age it already happened or never will; the question is whether it was fixed under warranty.
  4. Check transmission (8L90) on 2015–2018 cars. Torque-converter shudder and harsh 2-3 / 3-4 shifts traced to the original Dexron-VI fluid formulation; GM's fix was a flush to Mobil 1 Dexron HP fluid, with repeat failures common. Same defect family as the 8L45.
  5. Check engine (5.3L/6.2L afm) on 2014–2018 cars. AFM lifter collapse on the deactivating cylinders, frequently taking out the camshaft; owner reports cluster around 100k-120k miles.
  6. Check engine (5.3L) on 2014–2018 cars. Continued excessive oil consumption on the Gen V L83, from piston-ring sealing and AFM oil management.
  7. End with a pre-purchase inspection of this car. Aggregate data describes the population; the example in front of you has its own history.

For a buyer, failures on this generation are spread rather than concentrated: the middle half falls between 27,000 and 78,000 miles, with a median of 51,000. There is no single mileage threshold to watch, which means condition and maintenance records are more informative than the odometer.

On inspection, the brakes and the transmission and driveline are where this generation's reports concentrate, so those are the areas worth a specific look. The transmission and driveline in particular shows a median failure mileage of 46,000, which gives a concrete number to compare against the odometer of any car you are considering.

None of this is a substitute for a pre-purchase inspection on the individual car. Aggregate patterns describe a population; the example in front of you has its own history.

2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 recalls (36)

NHTSA records 36 recall campaigns covering vehicles in this generation. A recall means the manufacturer or the regulator concluded there was a safety defect or a standard was not met, and that a free remedy is owed to owners — including second and later owners.

2 of these carry a severe advisory — NHTSA's do not drive or park outside warnings, which the agency applies only when it considers the risk immediate. If you own one of these vehicles, that is the first thing to check by VIN.

The campaigns cluster around the airbag system (8), the seat belts (5), the hydraulic brake circuit (4). Several campaigns against one area can mean a remedy that did not hold, or separate defects in parts filed under the same heading; the summaries below name each defect.

Recall status is specific to the individual vehicle, not the model. Checking a VIN against NHTSA's lookup is free and takes under a minute, and it is the only way to know whether a particular car has had the work done.

Recall repairs are free at an authorized dealer, for any owner. Summaries below shorten NHTSA’s own wording. Some of these campaigns are filed under the shared name “Silverado”, which NHTSA also uses for heavy-duty trucks; they are marked below, and the VIN decides whether one applies.

These flags are self-reported by complainants and unverified by NHTSA; one report can carry several flags, so the counts overlap and do not sum to a total. They are not adjusted for how many of these vehicles are on the road. No chart is drawn here on purpose: overlapping counts spanning very different magnitudes cannot be honestly encoded as lengths.

Silverado 1500 problems by model year

The 2014 drew the most complaints of this generation, 1,560, most of them about the steering, and the 2018 the fewest, 523. A typical year drew about 794.

The first year of the generation, 2014, drew more complaints than a typical year. A count like this follows how many cars of each year were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as how often they failed, so it is not by itself evidence of a worse year; what each year's reports name, in its card and row, is the useful part.

† At least 40% of this year’s complaints were filed after 2020, and most complaints filed since then carry no odometer reading. Its median rests on the earlier reports and likely understates the mileage these failures happen at.
