Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD owners report experiencing high costs associated with total transmission failure, which can necessitate a new transmission. The average cost for a transmission assembly replacement is around $817, while a rebuild typically costs approximately $823. Owners of the 2020 model may see varying repair costs based on location, and rebuilding a 2022 Silverado 2500 HD can range from $1,428 to $3,015, depending on the model and repair location. Some owners find that opting for a used transmission from a junkyard can be a more cost-effective solution for severe issues. On average, transmission rebuilds can range from $2,500 to $4,000, while replacement transmissions generally cost between $3,000 and $5,000. With dealer quotes for new transmissions reaching $6,700, it may be wise for owners to consider independent shops or transmission rebuilds to potentially reduce expenses, as factors like damage extent and location can significantly influence repair costs.
