Overview & Reviews

The value-priced Work Truck package is now available on both regular and extended cabs. Base models pick up cruise control, a sound system, chrome rear bumper and chrome wheels. An automatic transmission is now standard on LS models, and the V6 is no longer an option in this trim. Other updates include new polished aluminum wheels and 265/70R16 tires with either black sidewalls or raised white lettering. The Quadrasteer option no longer requires the buyer to order trailering equipment. There's also a new tonneau cover, and inside, you'll find underseat storage. Finally, Chevrolet has deleted the Silverado's passenger-side outside door lock.

• Roomy extended-cab models, strong V8 engines, innovative features.

• Cheap interior materials, questionable build quality.

  Hidious Bench Seats - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By jeprudhom - October 2 - 2:00 am

  The 40/20/40 style bench seat is ungodly uncomfortable. If I had to do it again, I would take GM up on the 24 hour test ride. If I would have done this, I might have considered a different truck.

  Well... - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Denver Broncos Fan - November 26 - 2:00 am

  Im a little disapointed for the money I spent. The sticker was 33K+. For that much cash it should include a walnut dash, power seats, a decent sounding XM/multi-CD radio, etc...I find the base seats to be miserable on any trips over an hour. NO MANUAL LUMBAR ADJUSTMENT! Hell, even Kia has adjustable lumbar in their cheapest models.

  bad air bags - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By EEDDD - July 21 - 2:00 am

  our truck lasted 40 days &the air bag light came on. took a week to get parts. lasted 4days. air bag light is on again. Called chevy in detroit, they acted as if they couldnt possibly have cared less. This will be my last chevy. $27,000 sticker and it doesnt even go 90 days without problems. I still think they should replace the vehicle

  First review - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Marv Smith - August 19 - 3:43 am

  Sportside good looking.I have had many trucks, Chevys, fords, jeeps and dodge. I think the assembly quality has gone way down. Mostly interior fit is bad from the side window post to the driver door trim is not good. Outside front wheel whell is 1 inch different from right side. Splash covers are not the same. Center cup holder is a pain where it is.

  Expected a whole lot more. - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Disapointed__04 - August 27 - 10:00 am

  Besides being fun to drive, I cant say many more good things about this truck. The interior is way under done for being chevys high end truck. The side door panel trim keeps coming undone. The ac fan has become pretty noisy. Smoother acceleration would be nice, its very choppy. It turns heads, and prepare to dish out all the specs, but you cant hold your head up when Dodge and Ford have your number when it comes to overall performance.

  GM Excellence? - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By jdfosterdad - March 21 - 10:00 am

  1. We had engine performance issues from the start. The computer was reflashed 3 times. 2. At about 45,000 the engine began to knock when first started in the morning which sounded like piston slap, at 75,000 it was getting hard to start and compression on 3 cylinders was measured at 70-75 pounds. The motor had to be replaced. Since the motor, the transmission has had to be replaced. 3. We had performance issues, engine problems because of a poorly designed pistons and transmission failure, all were asked to be addressed under warranty and promises were made and in the end ignored. 4. Would I by another Silverado? I,ve been a GM customer for 30 years and can safely say NOWAY!!!!!

  2004 Z-71 Crew Cab - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By nomorechevy - April 25 - 3:53 pm

  Have had the truck at the dealership for a total of 15 days. We are on the 3rd steering shaft; it drives like a golf cart. Makes a popping noise when turning but only if its over 70 degrees outside. Steering wheel squeaks when the turn signal is on.

  Poorly built truck - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Sean 2003 - January 4 - 2:00 am

  I have had this truck in the the shop 11 times. All for warranty issues. The service department has been excellant but the dealership has been awful to deal with.I suggest going to another company for a vechicle. Chevy hit there all time low on this one
