2023 Chevrolet Suburban Power Train

Following extensive research & uncovering the fact that there are several class action lawsuits underway calling out GM for not issuing a formal recall when they should have from the start, we've been forced to personally absorb significant costs tied to replacing our 2023 Suburban's Valve Body around the mid-December FY'25 timeframe. It's also been publicly stated that GM opted to "not release" an official recall for the 1500 series Suburban when they've already issued an official recall for the larger 2500 series equivalent, according to our local dealership. We've already filed an official "full credit request" with GM's complaints organization, but we're sensing our voice will likely remain unaddressed at this point unless proven otherwise. Additionally, this is the second purchased Suburban with a YukonXL, being our original purchase from many years back, but in short, we're going to transition away from GM vehicles long-term, assuming our "full credit request" remains ignored. In short & our local dealership totally agrees with our current stance, critical transmission components should not be failing at this point & especially with a newer Fy'23 Suburban, when behind the scenes GM opts to "not recall" saving the company north of 600M from many months back. Just terrible from so many perspectives, as disgruntled end-clients like myself suffer from forced irresponsible cost requirements.

This vehicle shifts hard and was identified to have a transmission valve issue. It should be under the same recall that other Chevrolet vehicles have with same issue. On top of this, Chevrolet cannot keep up with demand for this part making only 500 per week. I’ve been told it may be 2 months before I have my vehicle back.

2023 Chevy Suburban transmission control valve failures causing wheel lockup or deceleration causing the vehicle to be unsafe to operate. Chevrolet refuses to acknowledge.

Transmission malfunction. This has appeared several times at highway speeds and low speeds. We have dad to limp along in the slow lane to exit ramp and take back roads to the nearest dealership. The current problem has been confirmed with error codes P0747. The dealership has scanned this vehicle and detected error codes in the past on two different occasions and found P176C in TCM on 08/01/23 and P17D6 on 10/24/24. Check engine light comes on with a screen prompt “Reduced Acceleration Drive with Care”. The transmission valve body has already been addressed once because of triggering limp mode.
