Yes I know, that is why I posted it. Someone was under the impression that only "hitting something" would trigger OnStar which is not the case.

I would have absolutely no problems having a car with OnStar BTW. If someone REALLY wants to spy on me there are much MUCH easier and less time consuming ways than having to go through judges/courts/subpoenaes etc. Glad they got the little bastard and made him responsible for what he did.

But let this be a lesson to everyone: When you decide to go out and do thousands of dollars of damage vandalizing someone's lawn or property in your OnStar equipped car like so many of us always do, when OnStar calls DON'T SAY ANYTHING!!!!!. Get the heck out of there and report the car stolen!!!! There, problem fixed!!!!
