How OnStar

®

Service Works

In order to provide you with OnStar

®

services,

your vehicle’s OnStar

®

system has the capability

of recording and transmitting vehicle information.
This information is automatically sent to an
OnStar

®

Call Center at the time of an OnStar

®

button press, Emergency button press or if
your airbags or AACN system deploys. The
vehicle information usually includes your GPS
location and, in the event of a crash, additional
information regarding the accident that your
vehicle has been involved in (e.g. the direction
from which your vehicle was hit). When you
use the Virtual Advisor feature of OnStar

®

Hands-Free Calling, your vehicle also sends
OnStar

®

your GPS location so that we can

provide you with location-based services.
