These results, visible only to logged-in members, provide only a rough estimate of car reliability.Any result under 20 repair trips per 100 cars is likely a result of the small sample size, and should be expected to increase to 20 or so in future updates.

MethodologyOnly successfully completed repairs are currently included in the analysis. Routine maintenance, most wear items, recalls, and problems fixed with just a reflash or warning light reset are not included.

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2010 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 315-horsepower 5.3L V8 6-speed shiftable automatic RWD |
I had currently owned a Dodge Ram 1500 I bought new in 2000 and it became a major repair magnet. Two new engines, rebuilt transmission etc. The Silverados my friends have owned for years have been very reliable. |
| 2008 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 315-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
Prior experience with GM trucks tells me that this one will last for years. No problems to speak of to this point. |
| 2006 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
I decided on the Silverado because of its reliable 5.3L engine, which there are Chevrolets with these engines with over 200k still on the road; I also went with the Silverado because of my past experience with Chevrolets |
| 2006 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
My 2006 is a proven performer. Much like any GM truck, the Silverado has a great reputation for reliability and durability, unmatched by any other manufacturer. |
| 2006 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
Have not had any major failures with this truck |
| 2004 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
No problems at all. |
| 2002 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 285-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
At 125,000 miles, the Silverado has never given me any troubles with getting from point "A" to point "B". |

| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2004 | 4dr Crew Cab 5.5ft bed 295-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range |
This vehicle had less than 30000 miles and it had many issues with the drivetrain. I cannot begin to explain the frustration I had with this truck. |
| 2003 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 285-horsepower 5.3L V8 4-speed automatic 4WD w/low range |
Front axel seal, MAF sensor, transmission shifting poorly at 105,000 already. I think it now has a fuel pump issue also, along with some EVAP emissions code. Fuel pumps go out on these frequently after 100,000 miles. |
| 2003 | 4dr Extended Cab 6.5ft bed 300-horsepower 6.0L V8 4-speed automatic RWD |
more repairs on it than the Honda Pilot |
