Question Onstar

Watched a news clip the other day and they claimed Onstar GPS is still actively tracking you even if you don't subcribe. Taking out the fuse does not disable it. Does any one know how to permantly disable this intrusion? 2010 Sierra 6.2. Thanks

Why is that such a big deal? They will be able to provide the next owner with service records and up to date information from your vehicle. I think its a good thing that they do that. Unless of course your treating your truck like poop.

Doesnt work.

And it's a big deal because it's my truck, not the next guy's and not GM's. It's none of their friggin business what I do with my truck.
