With OnStar you can call, and if you have the application you can simply do it yourself. |

True, but their gas pedals work better.

Do you sue Dell because a program you bought today won't work well on your PC you got from them last year? Maybe you should sue GM because a new 2LT/2SS has a HUD where your car doesn't. They upgraded the hardware to add this functionality to the cars as a new feature. I am sure they would do it on the older cars if there was a way, after all its a SELLING POINT and might get some people who would have otherwise dumped OnStar to keep it. They do want to, you know, make money.

remote start for manuals - nope
I doubt the app will or could provide any functionality not already in the car. I'm pretty sure the corporate lawyers nixed any thoughts of remote start on manuals since they would have to be in neutral. I'm happy I will be able to remote start from further away, like inside the restaurant.

FIRST, let me just say... WHY AM I NOT SURPRISED?!?
After reading though this article, watching the demo, and then reading through this forum I was pretty irritated like most of you are as I own a 2010 model. BUT, I hadn't seen anyone who had simply pressed that blue button on our mirrors to inquire about this. I was initially greeted by a woman who did not seem very enthused to be taking any call from any customer, for any reason. I brought up this new feature thinking "if they are releasing a demo video, the reps must have some idea about the details of this new product." This woman hadn't the slightest idea as to what I was talking about so she transferred me to another cust. service rep who also... SHOCKER!!! ...had no idea about this new feature. After almost 30 minutes and 3 OnStar reps later, I was finally transferred over to GM's marketing dept. And AGAIN, the GM rep too had no clue about what I was talking about. She even wanted to transfer me back to OS! No thanks... So I had the claim escalated and they'll get back to me in a week. fantastic... SHE DID TELL ME THAT THEY HAVE NOT MADE ANY CHANGES TO THEIR ONSTAR HARDWARE IN THE 2011 CAMARO MODELS!! (although she too probably hasn't a clue) Long story short, don't bother pushing the button... |

I'm baffled as to what has changed to be honest. If I lock myself out of my car, I can make a call to onstar, give them my unique pin number and as if by magic they will unlock my doors and let me in, that feature plus the ability to flash my headlights and sound my horn was available in a 2005 Envoy.
The only difference I see hear is that instead of speaking to an onstar rep to supply them this info verbally, I want to effectively text them the info via a handly little app - not sure what the big deal in apparantly not being able to do this is to be honest.
