Used 2023 Chevrolet Suburban Consumer Reviews
Diesel Burban, I love it, but...
I do want to love this Suburban. We bought the 3.0 baby Duramax. Sadly the thing is possessed. The dealership has no idea what's wrong. So $80K later, I'm never quite sure what will work and what won't each time I drive it. Heated seats just turn on high, and you can't turn them off. Infotainment system doesn't work about every 3rd time you get in it. The driver's mirror randomly rotates down (option for reverse that I have turned off). Dash goes black, another random occurrence thing. Front braking sensor goes off at nothing. Side mirror sensors also go off at nothing. Hard shift into 3rd gear, also randomly. Now we just disconnect the battery when more than 3 random oddities happen consistently. Seems to last about 5-6000 miles. Sadly thinking I may have to trade it, since GM has no idea why it's happening or what to do about it.

Get the diesel!
Just took delivery of our 2022 Suburban RST 4WD with the 3.0L Duramax diesel (Edmunds didn’t show option to select this engine for my review). New for this year is a 12” digital instrument cluster which can be customized many different ways. We love the sheer size and roominess of this vehicle. Have only put a couple hundred miles on it so far but already average 26 MPG highway. For a vehicle this size the diesel is a no-brainer and it comes with the same torque as the 6.2L gas V8.

Picked up a house on wheels...
2023 suburban ls with 5.3 v8, 4wd, 20 inch wheels, ash metallic with dark interior. Paid $61-62k MSRP. Other dealers had incoming or were charging $10k over MSRP. Apr was 4.09 at 60 months opr 4.29 at 72 months. Traded in a base '18 Ford explorer XLT with 55k miles. Wife and I have 3 children and a couple of dogs. Thought we could use the space. Drives like a big truck, aka Silverado. Cross shopped new Expedition and expedition max countless times. Felt like trying out General Motors product since we came from a Ford, plus we see so many new Tahoes, Yukons, and Escalades on the road... So was thinking we can't go wrong. 5.3 v8 is the more commonly available engine. Don't like the fact that this 5.3 is not manufactured in the USA like the 6.2 v8. Would love to have the 18 inch wheels even though the 20s look better on this big vehicle. So far, 75 miles on the vehicle and tank is just under the full mark. Hoping for 20 average. Will take a road trip to Houston here shortly, so we will get to test it out some more. Kids love the space and appreciate it the most. Hoping to maximize on usage of vehicle as children grow older. We have three daughters - a 13 year old, 10 year old, and a 4 year old. We have a couple of dogs as well. High country loaded version was just under 90k on showroom floor. Went for the LS at about 25-30k less. Wife is happy. Size and parking the vehicle will take some getting used to, especially as it sticks out quite a bit from the rear end compared to it's smaller Tahoe sibling. Thanks for reading. I love reading everyone's reviews here. *Edit: Wish the Suburban had more standard safety features like Blindspot monitoring and power rear trunk opening and more.

Worst!
Critical system broke at 200 miles. It broke again at 1,000 miles. I’m four months since delivery and a month since I’ve seen the car (they can’t find a part to replace it) and still don’t have it. Worst buying experience ever. Avoid GM at all costs. GM corporate is no help. Not the dealerships fault, it’s a GM manufacturing issue. Get the smaller Sequoia and save yourself my $78,000 fully loaded mistake.
