On the 2012 Chevrolet Traverse, the starter is located beneath the engine. If you are viewing the vehicle from the underside (after safely using jack stands), you will see it positioned behind the exhaust. Swapping it out is not straightforward as you will need to take out some other parts (like the exhaust or motor mounts – the latter being the preferred option). However, if you don't mind getting a bit dirty, you can save a substantial amount of money by replacing it yourself. A replacement starter can be purchased for about $160 to $250, whereas hiring a professional to do the job will cost you between $450 and $500. While it may be somewhat challenging, most experienced car buffs should be able to complete the task with minimal hiccups.
