2 Answers
2017 Malibu has OnStar. Introduction to OnStar: On-Star is the abbreviation of OnStar Information Service Co., Ltd., a joint venture established by General Motors, SAIC Group, and Shanghai General Motors on October 28, 2009. Functions of the OnStar system: The functions of the OnStar system have expanded from the initial technologies such as digital crash signals, hands-free calling, on-demand diagnostic screening, situational information awareness, uninterrupted digital virtual reality technology, emergency assistance, and turn-by-turn navigation to include new technologies such as emergency response data utilization, monthly diagnostic emails, crisis route selection, and multiple embedded languages.
As a seasoned Chevrolet owner with years of driving experience, I can confirm that the 2017 Malibu indeed comes equipped with the OnStar system, which has been verified by many owners. OnStar is Chevrolet's intelligent service installed in vehicles, providing remote control functions such as starting the car, turning on the air conditioning, or checking if the doors are locked via a mobile app. I particularly appreciate its safety features; in case of an accident, the system automatically alerts and calls for assistance, offering great peace of mind. During daily driving, it assists with navigation and supports voice services. However, it's important to note that new cars typically come with a free trial period of several months, after which you need to subscribe to a service plan to access all features. During maintenance, remember to ask the 4S dealership to update the system to avoid signal issues. Overall, this feature makes daily driving more convenient and safer.
