Also if you have State Farm Insurance the are in Bed with On Star! I get notices on my 04 Silverado and I am sure I will get them on my ZL1 with 4000 miles on it.
That is an automated response when your vehicle hits x miles you get a service reminder. Yes that is a form of tracking but it's not like they see you at Wal-mart and ask you what you got. I don't understand why people are so against OnStar. Yes, us gear-heads know when we should service our vehicles but everything these days is being more technology oriented so not to sound rude but you need to get used to it. It's only going to get worse if you don't
