Depending on the year of your Chevy Silverado, you might encounter different problems with the spare tire winch. Over time and use, rust and corrosion can lead to failure, especially in areas with salt-covered roads (hello, northeast USA). If you're in a pinch, you can cut the wire for quick access using a side-cut tool. If your vehicle is relatively new and still having issues, it's worth checking the equipment to identify the cause of the problem.
The primary issue that often arises with the spare tire hoist on a Chevy Silverado is when it gets jammed.
