CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2009 Silverado has no defect trends, which is a very good sign now that it's more than a few years old.
A couple model years back, the 2007 Silverado has an oil consumption defect at low mileage (~50k miles) — so far there's only a very few reports of the same problem with the 2009 Silverado.
The 2009 Silverado received poor side impact ratings on models not equipped with the optional side air bags.
I have had the vehicle a year and have stuck 1400.00 in to it on repairs. everything from windows not working, locks not working, some sensor on the motor that reburns my exhaust, blower motor. i will never buy another chevy product as long as i live and will recommend the same to all my friends family and customers i talk to. if i was to be given a brand new chevy i would trade it in on a ford or dodge as soon as possible because it will nickel and dime you to death. my wife had a chevy malibu that is on its third motor. I would put one in but we bought her a dodge and have not had a problem yet.
