So, I’ve got this 2004 Chevy Express van and lemme tell ya, it’s had its fair share of issues. First up, the transmission is a cranky old thing. Keeps slipping, especially if you’re driving up a hill. Had to replace it last summer, and it was a pain. And, the electrical system can be a real weirdo. Lights flickering or not turning on at all. But you just ignore it most times.
The cooling system’s another story. Overheats like crazy if you go too fast or forget to top off the coolant. Forgot the name of the part but I had to replace it a couple of times. Is this a common problem for you too?
Oh and, the fuel gauge needle jumps around more than my nephew on a sugar rush. Do you think it’s just the sender unit or something else? It drives me nuts. Besides these, mostly it drives fine, just these little things need constant attention. You got any fixes for these?
I’ve had my share of woes with my 2004 Chevy Express up in Toronto. The transmission acts up like it’s bored! Took mine to the shop so many times, I know the service guys by name.

Just another adventure in truckin’!

I had one of these Chevy Expresses back in '08 in Detroit, Michigan. Battery issues were a headache. Dropped it a couple times just jumping the car.

Time for a check-up and maybe some mods but overall, still a solid ride if you know what you’re in for.

Anyone else deal with these peeps?

Always make sure your fluids are checked regularly!
I’ve had my fair share of adventures with a Chevy Express 2004 model. Living in SoCal, the climate’s harsh on these trucks, especially the AC. It broke down more times than I care to count, and the electrical system has been a bit fickle, too. Suspension issues too, made for some bumpy rides on the roads. Not sure if it’s just mine, but the fuel economy leaves a bit to be desired as well. Anyone else with similar stories? Just passin’ it on.
