2014 Chevy Silverado Transmission Gone

[BigCaliLTZ]

My truck is at 128000 miles and I’ve noticed the tranny slipping and I’m hearing a grinding noise at higher speeds. Took it into Chevrolet and got a quote of $6500 for a replacement. I’ve also found a reputable mechanic to do a rebuild for half that cost. Has anybody else had this issue? Any recommendations?

That is about what I’d expect from a dealer. $6500 for a rebuilt trans is insane. You could get a built trans for that kind of cheese. I would definitely go to a few reputable independent shops for quotes. You might get lucky and find a low mileage drop out and just have a shop do the R&R. Yes there are plenty of trans failures on these trucks. It just happens. Lots of variables including some out of your control.
