Chevrolet Recalls (2010-2026)
Chevrolet has 372 recall campaigns on record across 37 models and the 2010 to 2026 model years. Most involve the air bags, seat belts, and electrical system.
Chevrolet scores 42 out of 100 (grade C) for recall severity, which ranks it 37 of 52 makes and about average across brands. The score is the recall-weighted average of its models, so the brands with the most do-not-drive and critical-safety recalls sit at the bottom. How the score works.
In total, NHTSA lists 372 Chevrolet recall campaigns across 37 models for the 2010-2026 model years. The single largest affected 3,640,162 vehicles. The system recalled most often is the air bags.
A high recall count usually tracks how many cars a brand sells and how long its models have been on the road, not how dangerous they are. The safety score below adjusts for that by weighing how serious and recent each recall is. The table further down breaks every Chevrolet model out so you can see which ones drive the count.
