2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 — Complaint #2135300
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:ELECTRONIC LOCK/LATCH ACTUATOR filed September 30, 2025
NHTSA complaint #2135300 (ODI reference 11690631) concerns a 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 and was filed on September 30, 2025. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 15, 2025. The vehicle had 129,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Alabama based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as latches/locks/linkages:electronic lock/latch actuator, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 cohort independently describe similar latches/locks/linkages:electronic lock/latch actuator failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2015 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500 shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
Complaint Description
The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The contact stated that the door locks were independently locking and unlocking, and the hazard lights were flashing intermittently. The contact stated that the interior lights and the headlights were activated without the contact using the key fob or manually turning the lights on. The contact stated that the 12-Volt battery and alternator were replaced, but the vehicle still experienced electrical failures. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed, and determined that the door lock actuator and the wiring harness needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 129,000.
