Front Brake Kit — Pads and Rotors for the 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado

What 2014–2018 Silverado owners report about the brakes

Owners have filed 61 complaints with NHTSA, the US federal vehicle-safety regulator, that mention brake pads or rotors on the 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado, and 1,256 filed under its brakes. Those 61, by model year, as of September 18, 2026:

• 2014 Silverado: 13 complaints
• 2015 Silverado: 16 complaints
• 2016 Silverado: 21 complaints
• 2017 Silverado: 9 complaints
• 2018 Silverado: 2 complaints

NHTSA publishes complaints as owners wrote them and does not verify them, so read them as a pattern rather than a diagnosis.

A 2015 Silverado owner, NHTSA complaint 11682156: "Vacuum pump failed causing an anti-lock brake failure and destroyed all my brake pads and rotors. General motors and the dealership are only covering the vacuum pump, but require me the customer to pay for the brake pads, rotors, and installation fees."

A 2018 Silverado owner, NHTSA complaint 11728641: "Parking brake pad failure has occurred twice. Last month at 31,668 mi, truck was taken in for servicing a warning light due to TPM failure (all replaced), and I asked for parking brake inspection because I was pushing pedal to the floor in order to engage."

Recalls that cover the front brake kit on the 2014–2018 Silverado

As of September 18, 2026, NHTSA lists no recall on the 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado whose defect is in the front brake kit. If your car has a warning light or a symptom that a recall could explain, check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls anyway — it takes a minute.

Which front brake kit a 2014–2018 Silverado takes

Rotor diameter and thickness follow the brake package, which is why two cars of the same model and year can take different kits. The 2014–2018 Chevrolet Silverado came with several powertrains, among them 4.3L V6 Automatic RWD, 5.3L V8 Automatic 4WD and 6.2L V8 Automatic 4WD. That is why we ask for the VIN, or the year, engine and trim, and confirm the part against it before you pay rather than after it arrives.
