Market analysis

How much does a used Chevy Traverse brake caliper cost?

Asking prices for a used Chevy Traverse brake caliper are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, front, RH, lists at a $30 median, while rear, RH commands $85, a 183% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $35, while 2021 tops the table at $146. Parts from 2017–2024 are interchangeable, so if the 2018 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 8 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Chevy Traverse sits 80% below the Mercedes S Class ($280), 81% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($297), and 21% below the Ford Explorer ($70) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used brake caliper: what to check

  1. Inspect piston shafts under dust boots: Peel back the rubber dust boot to confirm the hydraulic piston shaft has no rust pitting, flaking chrome, or fluid leakage.
  2. Check slide pin articulation: Verify that carrier slide pins move freely in their bores without binding, excessive slop, or torn rubber grease boots.
  3. Test bleeder screw rotation: Ensure the bleeder screw turns smoothly and is not rounded off, sheared, or seized solid in the caliper housing.
  4. Confirm mounting bracket inclusion: Verify the yard includes the matching carrier bracket and slide pins, as bolt spacing frequently varies across rotor size packages.
  5. Replace banjo bolt copper crush washers: Always install fresh soft copper crush washers on the brake line banjo fitting during installation to prevent high-pressure leaks.
