The Chevrolet Silverado is a range of trucks manufactured by General Motors under the Chevrolet brand. Introduced for the 1999 model year, the Silverado is the successor to the long-running Chevrolet C/K model line. Taking its name from the top trim level from the Chevrolet C/K series, the Silverado is offered as a series of full-size pickup trucks, chassis cab trucks, and medium-duty trucks. The fourth generation of the model line was introduced for the 2019 model year.

The Chevrolet Silverado shares mechanical commonality with the identically related GMC Sierra; GMC ended the use of the C/K nomenclature a model generation prior to Chevrolet. In Mexico, high-trim level versions of the Silverado use the Chevrolet Cheyenne name (not to be confused with the 2003 concept). Competing against the Ford F-Series, Ram Pickup, Toyota Tundra, and Nissan Titan, the Silverado is among the best-selling vehicles in the United States, having sold over 12 million trucks since its introduction in 1998 as a 1999 model year.

History

The Silverado nameplate made its debut for the 1975 model year, becoming the top trim level on all Chevrolet C/K trucks, slotted above Custom Deluxe, Scottsdale, and Cheyenne. For the 1968 model year (seven years before the Silverado), GMC C/K trucks used variations of the Sierra name (Sierra, Sierra Classic, Sierra Grande, and High Sierra). Even after the C/K series officially ended, GM still uses the CK and the CC in their current model codes, to denote a two-wheel drive (CC), and four-wheel drive (CK).

For the 1988 GMT400 model architecture, Chevrolet retained the C/K model nomenclature, with GMC branding its full-size line as Sierras. While sharing the same body and chassis, the model chronology of the Silverado and Sierra are different, with five generations of the Sierra, while four of the Silverado.

In 2018, at the NTEA Work Truck Show in Indianapolis, Indiana, Chevrolet unveiled the first medium-duty Silverado, expanding the model line to a 4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD chassis cab. Largely the successor to the 2003–2009 GMT560 chassis, the medium-duty trucks are exclusive to Chevrolet, with no plans for an equivalent GMC version. Instead, Navistar International (now partnering with GM) would sell the medium-duty trucks as a rebadged counterpart, called the CV. This is in fact a very similar nod to how the Avalanche did not have a GMC Yukon–based equivalent, but instead, Cadillac would take its place as the former's rebadged counterpart, the Escalade EXT.

Common Chevrolet Silverado 2500 hd problems

Based on the complaints from owners of Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD cars, here are some common problems associated with this vehicle:

4WD Transfer Case Position Sensor/Selector Switch May Fail: Another prevalent problem is the failure of the 4WD transfer case position sensor or selector switch. This component is crucial for engaging the four-wheel-drive system in the vehicle. When it malfunctions, it can lead to difficulties in switching between different drive modes, affecting the vehicle's performance, especially in off-road or challenging driving conditions.

Fuel Level Sensor Failure: Owners have also reported issues with the fuel level sensor failing in the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. A malfunctioning fuel level sensor can result in inaccurate readings of the fuel level in the tank, leading to incorrect fuel level indications on the dashboard. This can cause inconvenience to the driver and may result in running out of fuel unexpectedly.

Date Of Incident: 2024-10-09
Date Complaint: 2024-10-09
VIN: 1GCFC29T9XZ
Components: SEAT BELTS
Summary: Got my registration form to update my tags and I saw the comments at the bottom say this vehicle has a recall.. so I decided to call the dealer to set up a appointment to get it fixed when I called the dealer, they said that they didn’t have the part so they will contact me as soon as possible so I waited almost a week no response at all so I decided to call them back to find out what was going on with the update. they claim that the part is not available anymore because it is a older vehicle so they need to talk to his manager or someone higher at the dealers to find out how they can do this to get my recall fixed so they told me they will call me again as soon as possible Other week pass so I need to call the dealer again because they never did.. once I call them, they say oh yeah, I see that you already call. Let me check and find out what going on with the recall of the seatbelts!! He said you know what let me call you like an hour to found out all the information of it.. I want to say a lesson an hour they said that they couldn’t help me because my vehicle is old and the manufacture. They don’t make those seatbelts no more so they cannot help me at all. So I told him what’s the other step now if I have a recall they said yeah I’m not sure. I mean the only thing I can tell you if you look for a aftermarket seatbelt or something that’s pretty much that’s it they told me. So here I am wondering, what should I do now? Not sure if it’s safe driving my vehicle like that because supposedly they don’t make a no more because my vehicle is old but you will look at my vehicle looks like brand new because I hardly drive my vehicle. It has 125000 miles on it for a 99 Chevy Silverado original paint looks like brand new vehicle..
