Which Chevrolet Cars Come with OnStar?

As part of GM, OnStar is available on a large selection of GM cars including Chevrolet cars. OnStar is a subscription-based service that requires a compatible OnStar module. The service provides a variety of features including hands-free calling, remote diagnostics, turn-by-turn navigation, in-car security, automatic crash response, roadside assistance, and stolen vehicle tracking.

What can OnStar do for you? Imagine locking your keys in your car. Simply call OnStar and a live advisor can remotely unlock your car. Now imagine running out of fuel or getting a flat tire. Simply push the OnStar button and let the advisor know what's going on. From there, roadside service will be promptly dispatched. Now imagine a car accident where you've been knocked unconscious. Your car will automatically send an emergency signal to OnStar where live advisors will attempt to contact you before dispatching emergency responders. OnStar also offers several services designed for recovering stolen cars such as Stolen Vehicle Tracking, Stolen Vehicle Slowdown, and Remote Ignition Block. By activating these services for stolen Chevrolet cars, Ontario law enforcement agencies can quickly locate the vehicle thanks to the GPS tracking information. In many cases, criminals are caught red-handed and immediately arrested.

If you want a car equipped with OnStar, you can either buy a new or used Chevrolet that has the OnStar equipment built in or you can buy an aftermarket rear view mirror with OnStar built into it. Current Chevrolet cars with OnStar include: 2012 Chevrolet Impala, Cruze, Malibu, Sonic, Volt, Camaro, Equinox, Traverse, Suburban, Tahoe, Tahoe Hybrid, Avalanche, Colorado, Silverado, Express, and Corvette as well as 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco.

In addition to offering OnStar, some new Chevrolet vehicles come equipped with Chevrolet MyLink which is an 'infotainment' system that delivers online content such as music from Pandora to the vehicle. MyLink also integrates some of OnStar's services such as automatic crash response, turn-by-turn navigation, and live advisors. Chevrolet MyLink is currently offered on the 2012 Chevrolet Volt, 2012 Chevrolet Equinox, 2013 Chevrolet Malibu, and 2013 Chevrolet Camaro. It is expected to be offered on the 2013 Chevrolet Traverse and 2014 Chevrolet Impala.

Whether you buy a new OnStar-equipped Chevrolet Impala, opt for a used Chevrolet with OnStar on board, buy one of the Chevrolet MyLink-equipped models, or go for an aftermarket rear view mirror with OnStar, you'll need to activate the service by ordering a subscription. Some dealers offer a few months of prepaid OnStar services as an incentive for buying new Chevrolet vehicles.

If you want the peace of mind and convenience that OnStar offers, stop by Georgian Chevrolet where you'll find an impressive inventory of new Chevrolet vehicles equipped with OnStar.
