Updated Oct 1, 2026 from NHTSA data · Reviewed by Ivanna Verstliar
The 2024 GMC Savana achieved a NHTSA Safety Index of 68/100, positioning it in the Below Average band. This rating reflects a notable absence of comprehensive crash-test data from NHTSA; most categories remain untested. While its recall record is commendably clean, contributing positively to its score, the fact that advanced crash-avoidance technology is only offered as an option restricts its overall safety standing.
The 2024 GMC Savana Passenger 3500 earned a NHTSA Safety Index of 68/100 and a 3-out-of-5-star NHTSA rollover rating, with overall, frontal, and side-impact ratings listed as not rated by NHTSA.

ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 GMC Savana?
The 2024 GMC Savana Passenger 3500 achieved a 3-out-of-5-star rollover rating from NHTSA, with a 29 percent rollover risk and a passing dynamic tip result. This is the only crash-test data point available for the model year; NHTSA has not published ratings for frontal or side-impact protection. This lack of comprehensive crash-test data anchors its crash protection sub-score at 42 out of a possible 70. This model year registers zero recalls and zero owner complaints with NHTSA, earning a perfect 20 out of 20 for its defect record sub-score. This clean slate for defects drives a two-point increase in its overall NHTSA Safety Index score to 68/100, up from the 2023 model's 66/100. However, the Savana Passenger 3500 remains in the Below Average safety band. The vehicle offers forward collision warning and lane departure warning only as optional features, contributing to an avoidance technology sub-score of 6 out of 10. The absence of full crash-test data and the optional nature of key active-safety features prevent the 2024 Savana Passenger 3500 from rising above the Below Average safety classification.
