Market analysis

How much does a used Jeep Grand Cherokee transmission cost?

Asking prices for a used Jeep Grand Cherokee transmission 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. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 142% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $1,450.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, MT, 2.0L, lists at a $528 median, while AT (dual clutch transmission, DCT, 1.6L), Hatchback commands $2,500, a 373% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2026 units carry the lowest median at $800, while 2024 tops the table at $1,662. Parts from 2019–2024 are interchangeable, so if the 2026 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 6 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Jeep Grand Cherokee sits 94% above the Ram 1500 ($699), 47% below the Chevy Silverado 1500 ($2,563), and 34% below the Ford F150 ($2,060) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used transmission: what to check

  1. Ask for the donor mileage. Under 80K miles leaves significantly more service life.
  2. Confirm the torque converter is included with automatics; most yards include it, but verify.
  3. Match engine and drivetrain exactly. A CVT from a base trim won't fit a manual sport trim.
  4. Ask if the unit was test-driven or fluid-inspected before the donor was dismantled.
  5. Plan a fluid and filter change at install. Old fluid in a good unit causes avoidable failures.
