Known problems with the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

2 of the 6 issues we track for the 2019–2025 generation are documented against the 2019 model year, and 1 carries a recall or service bulletin.

  • DFM lifter failure (5.3L and 6.2L)

    major

    Dynamic Fuel Management lifters collapse just like their AFM ancestors: sudden loud tick, flashing check-engine light, misfire on a deactivation cylinder, and possible cam damage. Heaviest complaint volume is 2019–2021; 2021–2023 6.2Ls also had a batch of blocks with oversized lifter bores that GM replaced whole engines for. Out of warranty, a lifter/cam job runs thousands, many buyers check for this before purchase.

    Typical cost: Free under 5-yr/60k powertrain warranty; $2,500–$5,500 (lifters/cam) or $8,000+ (engine) after

  • 8-speed/10-speed torque-converter shudder

    moderateTSB 18-NA-355 (8L45/8L90 shudder)

    8L90-equipped trucks carry the same highway shudder issue as the K2XX; the fix is a flush with Mobil 1 Synthetic LV ATF HP per TSB 18-NA-355 (converters replaced when it persists). The 10L80 is much less shudder-prone but has its own harsh 1-2 shift complaints addressed by software TSBs.

    Typical cost: $300–$500 fluid exchange; free reflash under warranty

About the Chevrolet Silverado 1500

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is GM's full-size half-ton pickup and one of the three best-selling vehicles in America, and the 2012–2025 span covers three distinct trucks. 2L V8s on 5W-30 with 6-quart sumps and cheap PF48 filters. 3L.

The K2XX (2014–2018, plus the carryover 2019 'Silverado LD') brought direct-injected EcoTec3 engines with 8-quart V8 sumps, and added the 8L90 8-speed whose torque-converter shudder spawned TSB 18-NA-355 and a class action. 2L V8s for crankshaft/rod-bearing defects. 7 with 140 lb-ft lug torque, both wiper blades are 22 inches, the battery is a Group 48 (H6), and the key fob takes a CR2032.

Owners look things up constantly because specs genuinely changed: oil went from 6 qt of 5W-30 to 8 qt of 0W-20 on the V8s in 2014, the diesel takes dexosD-spec oil, and fuel tank and towing figures vary by cab, box, and axle.
