Recording and
Privacy
The vehicle has a number of
computers that record
information about the vehicle’s
performance and how it is
driven or used. For example,
the vehicle uses computer
modules to monitor and
control engine and
transmission performance, to
monitor the conditions for
airbag deployment and deploy
them in a crash, and,
if equipped, to provide antilock
braking to help the driver
control the vehicle. These
modules may store data to
help the dealer technician
service the vehicle or to help
GM improve safety or
features. Some modules may
also store data about how thevehicle is operated, such as
rate of fuel consumption or
average speed. These
modules may retain personal
preferences, such as radio
presets, seat positions, and
temperature settings.
Cybersecurity
GM collects information about
the use of your vehicle
including operational and
safety related information. We
collect this information to
provide, evaluate, improve, and
troubleshoot our products and
services and to develop new
products and services. The
protection of vehicle
electronics systems and
customer data from
unauthorized outside
electronic access or control is
important to GM. GM
maintains appropriate security
standards, practices,
guidelines and controls aimed
at defending the vehicle and
the vehicle service ecosystem
against unauthorized

Vehicle and Power Issues
OnStar services require a
vehicle electrical system,
wireless service, and GPS
satellite technologies to be
available and operating for
features to function properly.
These systems may not
operate if the battery is
discharged or disconnected.
Add-on Electrical
Equipment
The OnStar system is
integrated into the electrical
architecture of the vehicle. Do
not add any electrical equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment
0366.
Added electrical equipment
may interfere with the
operation of the OnStar
system and cause it to not
operate.
Vehicle Software Updates
OnStar or GM may remotely
deliver software updates or
changes to the vehicle without
further notice or consent.
These updates or changes
may enhance or maintain
safety, security, or the
operation of the vehicle or the
vehicle systems. Software
updates or changes may
affect or erase data or
settings that are stored in the
vehicle, such as saved
navigation destinations or
pre-set radio stations. Neither
OnStar nor GM is responsible
for any affected or erased
data or settings. These
updates or changes may also
collect personal information.
Such collection is described in the OnStar privacy statement
or separately disclosed at the
time of installation. These
updates or changes may also
cause a system to
automatically communicate
with GM servers to collect
information about vehicle
system status, identify
whether updates or changes
are available, or deliver
updates or changes. An active
OnStar agreement constitutes
consent to these software
updates or changes and
agreement that either OnStar
or GM may remotely deliver
them to the vehicle.
