Thursday, March 30, 2006A brand new feature of the safety and security division of GM comes a new service of diagnostics. As featured in the humourous new television ads OnStar where the man is checking his email and comes across email from his car! That's right in the often crazy world that we live in the 21st century ours cars can now drop us emails. The new service OnStar is offering on most Canadian and American GM vehicles that are 2004 or newer does just that. Their diagnostics program installed in the car automatically checks a series of hotspots throughout the vehicle on a monthly basis. These hotspots include your airbags, engines, transmission, your OnStar system as well as your oil and mileage. These results are put into a email report and emailed.  Each sector has a section on the email report that lets you know whether there is a small malfunction that the system could cure. If there is a more serious problem it will inform you as to what's wrong and suggest you visit your local GM dealer if that's the case. If there is something serious you can call a GM advisor who can conduct their own diagnostic tests. The advisor will then email you the results of the diagnostic and you will have much more information when you go to see your GM dealer or your auto shop. These tests can be run by the advisor at anytime if you feel there is a need prior to the monthly check-up. This service is offered at no additonal cost to all current OnStar subscribers. This I believe is some true cutting edge technology that is bringing what shows and movies have shown us is now coming to life. Check out the OnStar to see what it's all about.
