How much does it cost to replace a 2011 Chevrolet Malibu transmission?

I’m looking to buy a 2011 Chevrolet Malibu. It’s cheap because it’s having some transmission issues, but I’m afraid I’ll have to spend a fortune to replace the transmission. How much will a replacement transmission cost?

A 2011 Chevrolet Malibu transmission replacement can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $3,500 or more. A professional mechanic should be able to diagnose the exact problem and let you know if you need a new transmission or just some repairs (which are usually cheaper).
If you’re having any of the following issues, it’s most likely transmission-related:
  • Rough shifting or stalling when shifting
  • Leaking transmission fluid
  • Burning smell from under the hood
  • Engine stalling or surging
