Vehicle Data Recording and
Privacy
Your GM vehicle has a number of sophisticated
computers that record information about the
vehicle’s performance and how it is driven. For
example, your vehicle uses computer modules to
monitor and control engine and transmission
performance, to monitor the conditions for airbag
deployment and deploy airbags in a crash
and, if so equipped, to provide anti-lock braking to
help the driver control the vehicle. These
modules may store data to help your dealer/retailer
technician service your vehicle. Some modules
may also store data about how you operate
the vehicle, such as rate of fuel consumption or
average speed. These modules may also
retain the owner’s personal preferences, such as
radio pre-sets, seat positions, and temperature
settings.
Event Data Recorders
Some information about your vehicle’s
performance and how it is driven may be recorded
on various modules if a crash occurs. Some
people refer to these modules asevent data
recorders (EDRs). These modules may record
several seconds of pre-crash and crash data, such
as data related toengine speed, brake
application, throttle position, vehicle speed,
yaw rate, steering wheel angle, lateral
acceleration, safety belt usage, airbag
readiness, airbag performanceandthe severity
of the collision.Unlike the ight data recorders
on airplanes, these modules do not record sounds
or conversations.
To retrieve this data, special equipment and
access to the vehicle or the module that stores the
data are required. Certain data may also be
sent to or retrieved by OnStar
®(see below). GM
will not access this information or share it with
others except: with the consent of the vehicle
owner or, if the vehicle is leased, with the consent
of the lessee; in response to an official request
of police or similar government office; as part
of GM’s defense of litigation through the discovery
process; or, as required by law.
470

Data that GM collects or receives may also be
used for GM research needs or may be made
available to others for research purposes, where a
need is shown and the data is not tied to a
specic vehicle or vehicle owner.
Others may be able to retrieve this data if they
have access to the vehicle and have the special
equipment necessary to download the data.
OnStar
If your vehicle has OnStar®and you subscribe to
the OnStar®services, please refer to the
OnStar®Terms and Conditions for information on
data collection and use. See alsoOnStar®
System on page 114for more information.
Navigation System
If your vehicle has anavigation system,use of
the system may result in the storage of
destinations, addresses, telephone numbers,
and other trip information.Please refer to
the navigation system operating manual for
information on stored data and for deletion
instructions.
Radio Frequency
Identication (RFID)
RFIDtechnology is used in some vehicles for
functions such as tire pressure monitoring
and ignition system security, as well as in
connection with conveniences such as key fobs
for remote door locking/unlocking and starting, and
in-vehicle transmitters for garage door openers.
RFID technology in GM vehicles does not
use or record personal information or link with any
other GM system containing personal information.
