Looking for input on OnStar and My Chevy app ability to track me


Recommended Posts

I got a 2016 Silverado 2500 HD last week. My last truck did not have apps, onstar, navi and I'm not the most technical guy. I have a 3 month trial of OnStar Guidance and my wife and I both downloaded the My Chevy iphone app, which also links to the Onstar RemoteLink app. We do not have the FamilyLink. I really don't need OnStar and will let the subscription run out. It looks like I get their Basic app for life, which is fine. Here's the deal. My wife can be overbearing and ride my ass (figuratively) for the dumbest things. I'm not a cheater. If I was, I wouldn't have told her about the app or I would have bought a vehicle that I could be sure could not be tracked, saved for some super effort with a hidden GPS tracker. I don't think she's that nutty. But once in a while I stop at a friends house she doesn't like or the neighborhood bar. I don't want her stalking me through a phone app. I just don't want to deal with it if I"m 5 minutes late picking up a kid because I'm stuck in traffic. She really needs a job so she can be busy. Anyway, I'd like to know how much tracking she can do with these apps and what I have to do to stop it. If I"m at work and I set the Parking Reminder before I leave, when she logs into the app, will she still think I'm at work? That would be perfect. Just looking for a little bit of space here.


I did a search, but couldn't find anything. If this is discussed elsewhere, I'd appreciate the link. Thanks!

Oi. She got you alright. Well regarding your question, I'm sorry I don't have a good answer on that. I think the only solution would be to cancel everything onstar related. And then hope she doesn't put some sort of aftermarket tracking device on there that you don't know about..
