A power steering pump for a 2014 Chevy Traverse typically costs about $60–$370 for the pump itself, with installed price commonly ranging from roughly $260–$900 depending on part choice and labor rates.
Power steering pumps on the 2014 Traverse are belt-driven hydraulic units. Prices vary by whether you buy OEM GM, an aftermarket new unit, a remanufactured (rebuilt) pump, or a used/pulled unit, and labor costs depend on local shop rates and accessibility. Some purchases may include a core charge.
Parts costs
Prices differ by brand, condition, and whether the kit includes ancillary items like hoses or seals. Here are typical outlays for the pump alone as of 2024–2026.
- Salvaged/used pump: typically $40–$120
- Remanufactured (rebuilt) aftermarket pump: typically $60–$180
- Aftermarket new pump (non-OEM): typically $90–$260
- OEM GM new replacement: typically $180–$370
- Core charge: some suppliers add a core charge (often $0–$60) that’s refunded when you return the old unit
Prices can vary by vehicle configuration, supplier, and regional availability. Some kits also include related components or require additional hoses or fluids, which can affect total cost.
OEM vs aftermarket considerations
Choosing between OEM GM parts and aftermarket options affects price and warranty coverage. OEM parts tend to cost more but may offer stronger compatibility and longer warranties; aftermarket remanufactured or new units can save money but vary in warranty terms and quality.
Labor costs
Labor charges depend on your location, shop, and how easily the pump can be accessed. Typical factors include:
- Labor time: about 2–4 hours depending on vehicle access and whether other work is required
- Labor rate: regional shop rates commonly range from $75 to $150 per hour
- Related services: power steering fluid flush, belt inspection/replacement, or pulley work may add cost
- Warranty considerations: some shops offer warranties on parts and labor; confirm coverage before work begins
In most cases, you’ll see total installed costs in the ballpark of $260 to $900, with higher totals in high-cost regions or when dealer-installed OEM parts are used.
What to consider when planning a replacement
Before committing to a replacement, compare several quotes and ask about inclusions such as fluid, core charges, hoses, and whether the price covers both parts and labor. Verify whether the shop recommends a belt replacement or fluid flush as part of the service, as these can influence the final price.
Summary
For a 2014 Chevy Traverse, plan for a pump price that typically ranges from about $60 to $370, with installation bringing the total to roughly $260–$900 depending on part type, labor rates, and regional pricing. To guard against surprises, obtain multiple quotes, clarify what’s included (fluid, hoses, core charges), and confirm warranty terms on both parts and labor.
