This information usually includes
the vehicle's GPS location and,

direction from which the vehicle was
hit). When the virtual advisor feature
of OnStar hands-free calling is

electrical system, including
adequate battery power, for the
OnStar equipment to operate.
There are other problems OnStar

service at any particular time or
place. Some examples are damage
to important parts of the vehicle in
a crash, hills, tall buildings, tunnels,
weather or wireless phone network
congestion.
