    2004 silverado corrode brake lines. One broke while driving. No accident. All line corroded. Seems like a safety notice should be sent to owners, my family could have been hurt. Gm put cheap parts in, other manufactures are not having this problem. Seems like a big public safety concern and it will get worse as the 2004-2007 line start breaking.

I'm also hearing the clunking sound that so many other people have…

    Hello, i have a 2004 chevy silverado 1500 4x4 extended cab. I started to notice that the anti-lock brakes were acting unusual. Between 10 mph and 7 mph, the anti-lock brakes will act like they were on wet pavement or icy pavement, pulsating until i come to a complete stop. I have 62,000 miles on the vehicle, it has been properly maintained and looks like the day it came from the dealer. I have been doing some…

    Radio, the radio in my truck broke within 12,000 miles and had it replaced. I now have 36,000 miles on my truck and the radio is broke again with the same problem. The problem is the cd gets stuck in the slot and won't eject out. I have yet to get my cd out. *tr

    My 2004 chevy silverado has had a knock in the steering column it started at 18k. I had it fixed by gm at 30k. It came back at 37k. I did research and found out it is a very common problem that people keep paying to get fixed and it brakes soon after. I as many others are driving around with the problem. We cannot keep paying to get this fixed with defective parts. Please help by investigating this issue. Thank you…
