Default Thanks Chevydude —OnStar update

Well, I finally got my vin and Chevy took down the 2020 corvette option from the onstar app!

Chevy dude always made me cringe, now I know why.

Yeah Chevy Douce screwed us all for a few pennies in google ad revenue.

If you add the Vette on the website, it now shows in the app as of yesterday but you can’t add it on the app.

I don't blame them. If you were GM, would you want people remotely messing around with new cars that technically aren't even owned by them yet? Turning the lights on and off, using the horn, or worse: remote starting the car. These drain the battery and the limited amount of fuel which makes moving the cars around and loading them up a big issue.
Plus, if I'm not mistaken: the keys are in the cars. How are they supposed to load your car up if you locked the doors?

I'm only connected to follow my C8 as it makes it's way to my garage...if it ever moves from the BG lot.

Not everyone is that honest.

Better to track its progress with the trucking company.

I won't connect to the car again until I see movement on the trucking website. My C8 has 5 miles on it already...Doesn't that make it a used car?

Bunch of grumpy old men in this thread. Be glad you have one on order and even more glad that it's currently built and sitting in a parking lot!

I bet these same people bitch about "entitled millennials".......
