DATANot crash-tested
The 2024 GMC Sierra EV has not been subjected to federal crash testing by NHTSA, leaving it without official star ratings or a computed Safety Index. This absence of data means no federal assessment of its crashworthiness is available. Its recall and complaint record is light, however, with three recall campaigns addressing seat belt anchorage, exterior lighting controls, and vehicle wiring. Additionally, six owner complaints have been registered. The lack of crash-test results for this model year means its safety performance remains unrated by federal standards.

ANALYSISHow safe is the 2024 GMC Sierra EV?
The 2024 GMC Sierra EV's federal paper trail remains relatively thin for a vehicle at this stage of its market life. Three recalls mark its record, with the lighting module campaign specific to this model year, raising real-world conspicuity questions. A seat belt anchorage recall is shared with the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV, while a wiring recall extends across a broad range of GM electric vehicles. Six owner complaints are spread evenly across different components, suggesting no concentrated failure pattern. However, one alleged fire-related event in the Fuel/Propulsion System category warrants monitoring as the complaint record matures. The 2024 Sierra EV has not been assigned a Safety Index score by NHTSA, though the 2025 model year received a 95. This score applies strictly to the 2025 model and cannot be extrapolated to the 2024 vehicle.
NHTSA // RECALLSDoes the 2024 GMC Sierra EV have any recalls?
The 2024 GMC Sierra EV is subject to three recall campaigns. The first addresses seat belt rear anchorage, specifically a bolt that secures the assembly.

The third covers vehicle wiring and spans multiple GM electric platforms. NHTSA has not issued a park-outside or do-not-drive advisory in the data available for this model year, but owners should verify their VIN for open remedy status.
