Known issues on the 1995 K1500. This model year's only recall covers replacement oil filters with a sealing defect that lets engine oil escape, bringing a fire risk with it. Twenty-nine owner complaints are logged with NHTSA, with the service brakes accounting for twelve, the seats for eight and visibility for three. Brake hydraulic overhaul, drum and rotor specifications, seat frame and anchorage procedures with their torque values, and the wiper and washer content in the body section are the parts of this manual those entries point to.
