IT IS WAY TOO COMPLICATED TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE AND FORTUNATELY FOR US IT HAPPENED WHILE WE WERE AT WORK IN THE MIDDLE OF A SNOW STORM SO WE WERE ABLE TO PULL IT INTO OUR HEATED GARAGE TO ATTEMPT THE REPAIR.  WE LET IT WARM UP OVERNIGHT AND ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE THE NEXT DAY.  EVEN IN A 70 DEGREE HEATED GARAGE IN DRY CONDITIONS WE COULD NOT REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE.  I THINK THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE IF THIS HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSTATE OR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RURAL COUNTRYSIDE IN WINTER OR RAINY WEATHER IF SOMEONE ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE.  THE PARTS RUST FROM EXPOSURE AND THE MECHANISM TO RELEASE THE TIRE FAILS TO WORK.  FROM TALKING TO TWO TIRE DEALERS EACH SAID THAT THEY HAD TO CUT THE WIRES HOLDING THE TIRE IN PLACE WITH A BLOW TORCH TO EVEN REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE.  I ALSO BELIEVE THERE IS A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY THAT YOU HAVE A SPARE TIRE ON THIS VEHICLE IF THERE IS A FLAT TIRE.  THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR YEARS EACH TIRE DEALER SAID AND CHEVROLET HAS NEVER ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE.  I JUST IMAGINE A 16-18 YEAR OLD YOUNG MAN WHO IS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD STRUGGLING TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEING SERIOUSLY INJURED FIGHTING TO REMOVE THE SPARE TIRE.  THIS IS 2012 AND THEY CAN'T FIND A BETTER WAY TO SECURE A SPARE TIRE ON A PICK UP?  *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2004","productMake":"CHEVROLET","productModel":"SILVERADO 1500","manufacturer":"General Motors, LLC"}]}]}
