If you have Navigation and a bluetooth cell phone you don't need Onstar!

A TL owner ran into the electrical project manager who was working on the new TL...i think it was posted on this forum or another one. But they are planning to bring back onstar in the future

Don't quote me but I think Honda got it (Onstar that is) from GM for a certain period of time in exchange for engines (the J series V6's will be found in the Saturn Vue Redline series)

Onstar is much more than Nav and a phone. Remote unlock, Airbag notify, stolen car tracking. These are just a few of the services.

Love my Onstar.

Can Onstar be added on or must it be built in at the factory?

Must be from the factory in some form. Some GM cars have the ability to add it after the fact, but they really aren't doing that anymore.
