" On Star was 1 of the premieres"
" On Star offers all of its customers, and quite frankly it's a great thing for me. Let's say for some reason you locked your keys in the car. Well, this happens so much for me that I've actually programmed the On Star number into my phone, so let's call them. It's ringing. Hi, this is Tim Woods from Detroit, Michigan. I've locked my keys in the car. My account number? 8742. And my pin, 4262. Thank you. There we go. So let's review what we've covered with On Star. Well, you've got Virtual Adviser, which allows you to kinda build a profile menu of my sports, my weather, my stock quotes. You've also got the GeoMonster symbol, which gets you to a personal real live person who can help you with directions; where the nearest gas station, restaurant, or hotel is. And we've also got Crystal calling with name tags. You can build basically an auto dial menu to let you get to anyone you want to just by saying their name. I guess I'm all set. Take care."
