OnStar TTY help line from GM Canada
General Motors of Canada is offering a toll-free text telephone (TTY) help line through its OnStar subsidiary.
OnStar's real-time, 24/7 TTY phone line
Starting June 1, GM's OnStar will offer a TTY help line for subscribers who are deaf, hard of hearing, or speech impaired (and other TTY users).
The toll-free TTY phone number, 1-877-248-2080, enables direct communication between TTY users and the OnStar call center through a text telephone device that plugs into a landline or cell phone.
OnStar subscribers can directly contact an OnStar advisor using a TTY device from outside the vehicle for stolen vehicle location assistance, remote door unlocks, remote lights and horn (to locate a vehicle in a crowded parking lot or garage) and customer care issues. The OnStar subscriber's TTY will transmit text directly to a live OnStar advisor who is trained in the use of TTY devices and available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Customer care issues will be handled from 6-1 a.m. EDT.
