Checking the Tahoe forum and the Corvette forum I'd expect more people to be 'up in arms' about this email I got from Onstar. Basically going from 'court order' to 'giving away' our driving data.

btw, This is a technical thread, not a political big brother Onstar>GM>UAW>$>Feds discussion.

Anyway, I unplugged the cell cable and sat cable to the Onstar unit(the two FAKRA connectors), so they can't talk to me... yet, and GPS info isn't flowing to the Onstar HQ.

We all know our Iphones keep 30 days worth of GPS. My Raymarine nav system kept entire boating seasons of trips for several years, EPIRB's should go on when you need 'em.

Does anyone know the memory capacity of the Motorola GPS Oncore board(or Onstar) in the Onstar unit?

I'm working on a GPS/cell? 'default on' switch with a manual 'off' switch on the dash.

Generally Onstar is not too bad, btw, gotta run, I have to go out and check that RR tire pressure, my monthly Onstar email says it's down 1psi. :hands:
