Update: GM AUTHORITY has recently confirmed with General Motors that models older than those of the 2014 model year will not be compatible with OnStar in the country.

OnStar Mexico, a wholly owned subsidiary of General Motors Co. and General Motors de Mexico announced last week that OnStar services are now active on select vehicles. OnStar, an embedded telematics system, offers services focused on safety, navigation and connectivity for drivers and passengers.

OnStar combines sophisticated technology with access to live advisors 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Initially available on the new Chevrolet Cheyenne and GMC Sierra pickups, OnStar will be available on the Cadillac ATS later this year. More vehicles across GM’s four vehicle brands – Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac – will be equipped with OnStar throughout 2014.

OnStar announced its intent to expand into Mexico just nine months ago. To provide the personalized customer service for which OnStar is known, a call center in Mexico has been opened, staffed with advisors specially trained to assist drivers with directions, vehicle information and emergency services.

... Some of the services OnStar will offer are:

• Automatic Crash Response
• Emergency Response
• Remote Services
• Stolen Vehicle Assistance
• Turn-by-Turn Navigation
• Vehicle Diagnostics
• Real-time Advisors
