Model Summaries

Chevrolet Blazer

Reliability is good for a used midsize SUV and above average among SUVs. Favor the 2022 and skip the 2019 and 2024. The two problems that matter most are a "Shift to Park" message that stays on with the shifter in Park, and a sticking thermostat that brings a P0128 code, no A/C, and reduced steering assist. Estimated repair cost is $521 a year.

Average score: 76/100. Best year: 2022 (79/100). 8 years tracked.

Chevrolet Blazer EV

Reliability is mixed, and the Blazer-EV sits well below average among SUVs. The biggest worries are sudden power loss after a "Service high voltage system" warning and unexpected hard braking. No year is clearly worse than the other, so 2024 is the pick. The 2025 has had too little time on the road to judge fairly.

Average score: 53/100. Best year: 2024 (49/100). 2 years tracked.

Chevrolet Bolt

Mixed overall and well below average among SUVs, this compact electric model is best bought as a 2023 or 2021. The 2019 is the one to skip, with owner reports of battery fires while parked and charging. Across all years, steering that stops returning to center and sudden loss of drive power are the problems to check first.

Average score: 59/100. Best year: 2023 (64/100). 5 years tracked.

Chevrolet Camaro

Used Camaros rate good for reliability and sit above the average sedan on the site. Power train complaints lead the list, mainly a rumble-strip shudder in automatics and hard shifts, and some owners report power steering assist cutting out without warning. The 2023 model year is the pick, while 2018 and 2020 rate lowest.

Average score: 75/100. Best year: 2023 (81/100). 6 years tracked.

Chevrolet Colorado

Used Colorados rate well above other trucks, with repair costs close to the midsize average. The 2022 is the year to favor, while the 2023 redesign is the one to avoid because of false automatic emergency braking and blank screens. Across all years, watch for transmission shudder under acceleration and ignition keys that will not come out.

Average score: 79/100. Best year: 2022 (81/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Corvette

Reliability is good overall and close to average among coupes, though yearly repair costs run above the midsize-car norm. Cracking factory wheels are the main watch item, and they hit the 2019 hardest. The 2023 is the safer pick among years with a track record. The 2025 and 2026 show no complaints mostly because they are new.

Average score: 71/100. Best year: 2023 (73/100). 8 years tracked.

Chevrolet Equinox

Reliability is good, with repair costs close to the compact SUV norm. The most serious pattern is a brake pedal that goes hard or sinks to the floor, often blamed on the vacuum pump. The 2018 and 2020 model years rate lowest, 2024 is the pick, and 2026 is too new to judge.

Average score: 73/100. Best year: 2024 (76/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Equinox EV

Reliability is good overall and close to average among SUVs. The 2024 is the year to buy, since it has been on the road longest and has one recall on file, against six for the 2025. The biggest complaints are dashboard glare reflected in the windshield and automatic emergency braking that slams on with nothing nearby.

Average score: 69/100. Best year: 2024 (67/100). 3 years tracked.

Chevrolet Impala

Used Impalas hold up well, with yearly repair costs a little under the full-size average. The 2020 is the year to favor, with no recalls on record, while 2018 drew the most complaints. Watch for transmissions that slip or shift hard in the lower gears, and for electrical faults where power cuts out without warning while driving.

Average score: 78/100. Best year: 2020 (79/100). 3 years tracked.

Chevrolet Malibu

Used Malibus hold up well, with repair costs close to the midsize average and a standing above most sedans on the site. Favor 2023 and avoid 2018, which collects far more complaints than any other year. Two problems matter most: a false "Shift to Park" message that keeps the car from shutting off, and sudden "Engine Power Reduced" warnings that slow the car on the road.

Average score: 76/100. Best year: 2023 (81/100). 8 years tracked.

Chevrolet Silverado

Used Silverados rate good and sit above average among full-size trucks. The weak spots are a transmission that can shift hard, shudder, or slip, and lifter failure that can end in a new engine. Skip 2019 and 2020. Look at 2023 first. The 2025 and 2026 trucks look clean mostly because they have had little time on the road.

Average score: 73/100. Best year: 2023 (75/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Silverado EV

Used Silverado EV trucks rate excellent for reliability, well above average among trucks on the site. No model year falls well below the rest, and 2024 is the pick. The problems to watch are rear door sensors that fail to warn of an open door, mostly on the WT trim, and a front trunk latch fault that forces limp mode.

Average score: 81/100. Best year: 2024 (80/100). 2 years tracked.

Chevrolet Suburban

Used Suburbans rate good for reliability and sit close to average among SUVs, though yearly repair costs run above the full-size SUV norm. The 2024 is the pick, and 2021 is the year to avoid. The two problems that matter most are valve lifter failure, which brings ticking, misfires and sudden power loss, and transmissions that fail suddenly, often with no warning light.

Average score: 69/100. Best year: 2024 (72/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Tahoe

Reliability is good and close to average among SUVs on the site, though repairs run about $744 a year. Favor the 2024 and avoid the 2021, where valve lifters fail and the engine loses power without warning. Across all years, slipping transmissions and sudden engine power loss on the highway are the problems that matter most.

Average score: 72/100. Best year: 2024 (75/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Trailblazer

Good reliability, close to average among SUVs, with 2021 the year to skip and 2024 the one to buy. The big complaint is a shifter that does not register Park, so the engine keeps running and the doors will not lock. Reduced engine power warnings tied to the turbo are the other issue to watch.

Average score: 73/100. Best year: 2024 (78/100). 6 years tracked.

Chevrolet Traverse

Used Traverse shoppers should favor the 2024 and steer clear of 2018 and 2019. Reliability standing is good, though repair costs run above the midsize SUV average at $656 a year. The problems that matter most are a false "Shift to Park" warning that keeps the car from shutting off or locking and drains the battery, and transmission shudder in the early years.

Average score: 70/100. Best year: 2024 (73/100). 9 years tracked.

Chevrolet Trax

Used Trax models rate well above average among SUVs, and the 2022 is the pick for most buyers. The 2018 and 2019 years are the ones to skip, with front lower control arms that crack at the weld and dash screens that black out. Repair costs run about $488 a year, slightly above the $466 subcompact SUV average.

Average score: 81/100. Best year: 2022 (81/100). 8 years tracked.
