When it comes to driver assistance and vehicle-to-phone connectivity, GM’s OnStar is unrivaled. This system provides a host of features to drivers from emergency help to hands-free calling and everything in between. There are several OnStar plans available. You can stay connected with your preferred car dealership and keep them up-to-date on your vehicle’s needs. You’ll get alerts for recalls, diagnostic information, and maintenance reminders. All new OnStar-capable vehicles also receive marketplace offers from GM. You can use the OnStar app to start your car, lock the doors, and check the fuel level. OnStar allows for personal and emergency phone calls through their system. This means that if you forget or lose your phone, you will be able to contact help or family members. There are also Wi-Fi hotspots in vehicles that allow other devices to connect. OnStar also monitors its drivers’ safety and security in the event of an accident, inclement weather, stolen vehicles, or other safety and security issues. According to their website, OnStar offers four basic plans with several add-on options. If there are services you want, there’s a plan that offers them. To determine the best plan for your vehicle, contact OnStar directly. According to GM.com, OnStar’s basic plan is included with any new GM vehicle that is OnStar capable of for the first five years of ownership. Access to the vehicle’s app, such as myCadillac, myGMC, myChevrolet, or myBuick, as well as the OnStar app, is included. Despite the fact that this is the most basic plan, it covers a lot of ground. You’ll benefit from the SmartDriver feature, which can help you save money on car insurance while driving safer and more efficiently. This feature also helps drivers stay more alert and aware rather than depending too much on driver-assist systems like adaptive cruise control. The basic OnStar plan also keeps you informed of your vehicle’s maintenance and repair needs. You’ll never forget to change your oil or rotate your tires again. If your vehicle is equipped with remote capabilities, you’ll also have access to the door lock control and remote start. The basic plan also includes the AtYourService feature, which allows you to make restaurant reservations, order pizza, and find nearby coffee shops. According to Miami Lakes Auto Mall, the protection plan, in addition to all of the services covered by the basic plan, provides assistance in times of emergency. This is the plan for those who want to know that they and their loved ones will be taken care of in the event of a crisis or accident. The Protection Plan includes Roadside Assistance, Automatic crash response, and Crisis assistance. OnStar advisors are always available to assist you in your time of need. If your vehicle is involved in an accident, an advisor will automatically be notified and can help get a first responder right to the vehicle’s location without requiring anything from the driver or passengers. This can save lives when an accident results in a driver being unable to call for help. Crisis assistance is similar to roadside assistance, but it allows drivers to ask for help in the event of dangerous weather conditions or another type of crisis that needs emergency help. Help is available with this plan by simply pressing the OnStar button in the vehicle, so you don’t even need your phone. If you choose the OnStar security plan, you’ll get all of the same benefits as the basic and protection plans, plus the Stolen Vehicle Assistance feature. Using the GPS sensors in the car, drivers can collaborate with authorities to locate their stolen vehicle. Another benefit of this plan is the alarm alert, which will notify you via smartphone if your vehicle’s alarm is activated. With the guidance plan, add turn-by-turn directions via the OnStar system. This isn’t just any old navigation system; these are instructions from a live OnStar advisor. Simply activate the OnStar system in your vehicle, ask for directions, and listen as you’re told where to go. This is the top-tier plan because it includes all of the other plans’ features. With this option, you’ll also get 30 minutes of hands-free calling per month. Depending on the plan you choose you’ll enjoy some or all of the following features and services with the OnStar app, according to GMAuthority.com: Lock and unlock the car doors, start the engine, honk the horn, and turn on the lights remotely, Find a destination in the OnStar app and then send it to the vehicle’s navigation system, Check the fuel levels, battery charge, tire pressure, oil health, or mileage from the app, Automatically send maintenance updates sent to the vehicle’s dealership, Check vehicle diagnostics, including vehicle recall information, general vehicle health, and OnStar account status, Automatically notify first responders and family members in the event of an accident or emergency, Notify OnStar advisors of a crash with an automatic crash response, Get assistance in a crisis or during severe weather, Get roadside assistance as needed, Find a stolen vehicle with the help of the authorities, Make phone calls without using your hands or your phone, Get updates on the vehicle’s location when other family members are driving it, Access a vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot and connect up to seven devices at a time, Learn how to drive more efficiently with coaching from the OnStar Smart Driver feature, Enjoy discounts and special offers at certain restaurants, stores, and other places with the OnStarAtYourService feature.
