Rear Main Seal Leaking After Transmission Rebuild
Yeah, it was a tough/expensive lesson to learn. You would think the transmission shop would replace the seal regardless of how it looked.

We have a 2013 Tahoe LT with 5.3 liter. Transmission started slipping last November so we took it to a recommended transmission shop.

Ground wire switch @ rear bumper&Rear Main Seal Leak
Thank you so much for passing along all the information, Fless. You are probably correct to check the fuse...I just saw the damaged bumper and broken switch with wire hanging down from the switch connection. I'll check the fuse box and see what I can find. I'll also work on getting some photos...- John ThreeSixteen

Ground wire switch @ rear bumper&Rear Main Seal Leak
