2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

Factory specifications, fluid capacities, torque values, EPA fuel economy and the federal safety record for the 2025 Silverado 1500.

The 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 carries just 83 owner complaints and zero recalls into a model history that spans 1997 through 2026, a comparatively quiet entry next to the line's recorded peak of 1,554 complaints for the 2014 model year. Engine issues rank as the top complaint area for this model year, yet the low overall volume and absence of recalls keep the 2025 near the bottom of the problem curve. That placement makes the 2025 Silverado one of the more stable model years in the dataset for researchers tracking long-term reliability trends.

Factory maintenance schedule OEM · verified

Normal service, condensed from the factory interval matrix.

Under the factory schedule, replace the engine oil and filter every 7,500 mi; spark plugs every 97,500 mi; coolant at 150,000 mi. The big-interval services (at 150,000 mi for coolant, and the transmission fluid) are the ones owners most often skip — on a lower-mileage example, assume the original fluids are still in it and check them first.

Reliability & federal safety record

Owner-reported issues, recalls, investigations and service bulletins on record with NHTSA — an unfiltered look at what owners actually experience.

In the federal record, the 2025 model year shows a sharp decline in complaints (84) and zero recalls or investigations, compared with 277 complaints and 2 recalls in 2024 and 54 complaints with 3 recalls in 2026. Looking at the generation span from 1997 to 2026, complaints fell from a peak of 1,554 in 2014 to a low of 84 in 2025, while recalls dropped from a high of 23 in 2015 to none in 2025. TSBs followed a similar downward trajectory, decreasing from 3,097 in 2014 to 443 in 2025 and further to 179 in 2026. The top complaint categories for 2025 are Engine (22), Power Train,Engine (7), Power Train (6), and Unknown Or Other (6), with only one crash‑related and four fire‑related complaints reported.
