OnStar comes through big time

[MasterShakes]

Some good friends of mine went to the Browns game yesterday. One of my friends, who just bought a new car, had his car flat out stolen from the lot he parked it in in downtown Cleveland.

After the police didn't show after a phone call and a 45-minute wait at the lot, they walked to the police station and filed a report. The cops acted totally flippant about it, and said that this happens during Browns games all the time.

The car has OnStar, but he was never a subscriber. Despite this, OnStar agreed to locate the car, and he now has it back. To return the favor, he decided to subscribe to their service for at least a year.

I don't know everything that OnStar is capable of doing, but that they could do this was pretty impressive.
