What’s so great about OnStar?
A lot—here are just a few miracles
First there was Kit, Michael
Knight’s heroic car in Knight Rider.
Now, there’s OnStar. Seriously, the similarities are fascinating. Check them
out:
First, let’s define OnStar: OnStar
is a navigation and tracking system that General Motors installs in its new
vehicles.
Okay, that sounds pretty
simple, but it is ever so much more. Check it out.
· When you’re in a crash, OnStar knows it without
you doing or saying anything. Even if you can’t speak, or bush the button, OnStar
knows your hurt and will be there ASAP. In most crashes, high-tech sensors can
alert OnStar that you’ve been hit. When this happens, GM automatically opens a
direct connection between your vehicle and one of our Emergency Advisors, who
can send help to the precise location. Even if you’re unconscious.

If your vehicle is stolen, OnStar knows where it’s at. They work
with the police to attempt to recover it—swiftly and safely. Here's just one
OnStar subscriber whose stolen vehicle was returned.
·
If
anything has happened, you’ve run out of gas, broken down on the highway or are
in trouble, Onstar notifies roadside assistance. If you find yourself stranded,
you're never alone: with one push of the OnStar button, Roadside
Assistance can be on the way. This incredible service is automatically
included in OnStar’s monthly and yearly plans as well as trial subscriptions.
·
And…wait
for it….this may be the best part. If you’ve never activated OnStar even in a
pre-owned car, you can push the button and get 3 months free to try it.
·
And
of course, OnStar has Kit’s navigation system. Harness
the power of MapQuest to make travel planning even simpler. Just plan your
route ahead of time and send it to your vehicle with one click. You can store multiple
destinations—and retrieve them from your vehicle whenever you want, and get
up-to-the-minute Turn-by-Turn directions.
OnStar is like your best traveling companion—the
one who doesn’t fall asleep, or sing so loudly that you miss your turn. Ask
about OnStar when you purchase your next Borcherding vehicle.
