Chevrolet and OnStar Redefine Vehicle Maintenance

OKEMOS, Mich. – We may not be able to predict the future, but Chevrolet cars can. As Chevrolet and OnStar redefine vehicle maintenance with a new Proactive Alert that will warn you of potential maintenance needs before they occur. With similar technology as the Boeing 787, new 2016 Chevrolet models will have monitoring systems watching your vehicle.

The new OnStar Proactive Alert system monitors the health of your vehicle. It watches your vehicle’s starter motor, fuel pump, and 12-volt battery. The system has the intelligence to know the difference between a low state of charge that can be solved by driving for a short time, and a high electrical resistance that can lead to a batter replacement. 

By collecting small amounts of data every time your vehicle starts, the Proactive Alert can monitor your vehicle on an ongoing basis. If any irregularities are detected, OnStar will notify you to take your vehicle in for maintenance. Drivers are notified by an in-vehicle notification, and by email or test message. This benefits not just the drivers but dealership service departments as well. Now dealer service departments can spend less time diagnosing the vehicle’s problem and get customers on the road faster.

Customers can truly experience how Chevrolet and OnStar redefine vehicle maintenance with the new Proactive Alerts featured in 2016 Chevrolet vehicles. The Proactive Alert is offered with the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, Corvette, and Equinox. It is also offered with all OnStar service plans with each of these models. Chevrolet and OnStar are currently working on future plans for the Proactive Alerts like monitor additional vehicle components and covering additional models.
