Help in a crash. Even if you can’t ask for it.
Car crash detection. It matters. If you’re in a severe crash, we’ll check to make sure you’re OK. We’ll also tell First Responders exactly where you are and what kind of help you need. Thanks to Automatic Crash Response,* we can be on the line and by your side quickly — and automatically.
Simply put, OnStar crash detection can help save lives.
Here’s how it works:
Using built-in vehicle sensors, a specially trained OnStar Advisor can be immediately connected into your car to offer help.
Even if you don’t respond, our Advisors can give First Responders your location and use Injury Severity Prediction to tell them the likelihood of serious injuries.
OnStar Advisors are also trained and certified* to provide medical assistance until help arrives, ensuring you won’t face the emergency alone.
