That's not the problem. The issue is that d8:sus2 is only acceptable
to \chordnames not when notes are expected.  Plus, when you enter
chords using \chordnames each name represnets more than one note.

Try using \reducechords to convert each chord to its tonic when you
display it:

introChords = \chordmode {
   d8:sus2 d4 d4 d8 d d |
}

\new Score {
 <<
 \new ChordNames { \introChords}
 \new Voice%   \with { \consists "Pitch_squash_engraver" }
 \relative c' { 
   \improvisationOn
   \reduceChords \introChords
   }
 }
 >>
}
