Chevy OnStar Brings Security, Safety and Navigation To Your Car
My first introduction to OnStar in a Chevy was during a TravelingMom retreat, but I’d heard about OnStar’s epic service prior to my May visit – and how the touch of OnStar’s Emergency button saved a life.
Driving on southwest Colorado backroads in a Chevy Avalanche, my friends happened upon a motorcycle accident. Unfortunately all cell phones were in the dead zone without service. Fortunately, my friends pushed their OnStar Emergency Button and help was on the way.
During the Disney TravelingMom retreat, test drives for several Chevrolets were set up near the convention center of BoardWalk Inn. When a group of moms climbed into the Chevrolet Tahoe for an Orlando scavenger hunt, we experienced OnStar first-hand.
During this hour while driving the Tahoe, we experienced first hand the OnStar customer service, placing several calls by simply pressing the blue button, located on the inside rear view mirror. We were lost and the customer service rep remotely downloaded turn-by-turn directions to our Navigation system. We did learn that there is a learning curve for first time users of OnStar (all of us).
